BONNIE "PRINCE" BILLY - Lie Down In The Light
With Drag City following the example just set by The Raconteurs in sneaking this album onto shelves, and after enough covers, demos and live recordings to tide us over in the two-year interim, we're suddenly, happily given a new full-length Will Oldham effort to contemplate. Marrying The Letting Go's atmospheric approach to the upbeat, relaxed glint of such past efforts as Ease Down The Road, the perverse touches are still there if you look hard enough, and Ashley Webber shines as co-vocalist on many of these songs. One to sit with and listen to in good company.
