Bonnie Prince Billy - Topic profile

Anyone here like William Oldham or as his is known as Bonnie Prince Billy? Maybe as the Palace Brothers or Palace music. He names himself and his band after he sees how the album comes out. He is an actor but his music is very honest and very cool. Quite a strange person and fits into the Frank Zappa mode but nothing like him. Not sure if you will know what I mean but if you get a chance ...

Surprised to see there was no mention of this one, and, on the whole this one seems to be not getting too much attention (perhaps because Oldham consistently churns these great records out?). Well, it is very good and very beautiful. A definite contender for my favorite of the year. Here's a link to the closing track of the album, not written by Oldham, but still ridiculously gorgeous:...

Fuck man, "The Letting Go" is a great listen.

Yeah I really like the Bonnie "Prince" Billie stuff. He's also done a very good album with Dawn McCarthy, very low fidelity and scratchy. Quite etherial at times. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Wai-Notes-Da.../dp/B0010RD Y6E Some good albums in the "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought" section of that page too.

but it's been 3 years so let's give this another go, eh? I only picked albums i have on my ipod, so things i have on record but never listen to are out (goodbye Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and There's A Riot Goin On), as are compilations (goodbye gram parsons, 13th floor elevators, new order, simon and garfunkle). I kept live albums though because folsom prison is the quintessential johnny cash...
