a-me-with-a-you Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I'd love to hear impressions from you sage folk about the new Bill Callahan record. If you knew such a thing existed, that is. If not, well, get!! Go on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GtrPlyr Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I'm really digging it, definitely one of my favorites of 2013. He pretty much had me by the opening track when he sings: The only words I’ve said today are "beer" and "thank you." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MattZ Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I'm really digging it, definitely one of my favorites of 2013. He pretty much had me by the opening track when he sings: The only words I’ve said today are "beer" and "thank you." Couldnt agree more. Then he repeats it 3-4 times as if he keeps ordering. He's one of a kind. I cant get past the first song to really listen to the rest of the album closely because that opening track is so stunning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's smart to keep it to 8 tracks, consequently there isn't a minor one in the bunch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MattZ Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Desperately trying to make it through a day while only saying "beer" and "thank you." So far, no luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 i have been really impressed that Bill Callahan and Will Oldham have spent by far the majority of their careers w/ Drag City. and they keep putting out great material. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MattZ Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Drag City is great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 dig this album a lot, but i could do with a bit less flute... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CortezTheKiller Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 dig this album a lot, but i could do with a bit less flute...I was thinking the same thing today, but I kinda think the flute is essential. That said, I still have hard time embracing it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mpolak21 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Desperately trying to make it through a day while only saying "beer" and "thank you." So far, no luck. Hahaha. Like you I had to listen to the opening track over and over again before I jumped to the rest of the record. Thankfully, it's just as good. This and the new Califone have been in constant rotation for me this fall. --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
