What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Ant feeling happy.

Bonnie 'Prince' Billy has a spanking eight song EP called 'Ask Forgiveness'. This is further evidence that this man is a diamond in the rough. I struggle to think of anyone with as much soul, passion and talent for songwriting. What can you say? It just pours out of his heart and hits you every time. This EP is a collaboration with Meg Baird and Greg Weeks from Espers. It's like they were born to play together. Oldham's vocal lends itself perfectly to the folk tinged acoustic bliss. A record bursting with emotion. LP and CD on Domino.

What the label says:

Will Oldham reappears with a mysterious new record release ‘Ask Forgiveness’ is a collection of cover versions as performed by Will Oldham.Eight songs featuring songs by Bjork, Merle Haggard, The Mekons and R Kelly, sometimes combining different songs together, such as on the Danzig / Roky Erikson combo ‘Am I Demon’. The record was recorded with Meg Baird and Greg Weeks from the band Espers in Philadelphia.As with all Bonnie releases, this will prove popular amongst his rabid fanbase, as well as being so beautifully played and recorded that it will easily open itself out to the more casual listener.

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
