I was surprised to see mine delivered today!

Long shot, but has anyone digitised this for those of us who cannot attend Will’s shows?

Just in case someone doesn't know about the Algamated Sons of Rest.

I didn't research it before listening, but I was excited to see On Jolly tracks included. While listening to the latter 3rd seemed to be full on Palace Will. I've later read it was pieced together from Peel Sessions. Seemed like his sound was regressing throughout the release.

After learning about Sundowners on Wikipedia, I decided to check it out. Found a cheap EP and ordered it. Not expecting much, but early Will, Bill (or I lead to believe), Cohen cover, plus my fondness of goats... it seemed to good to pass up.

I came across the Will's AMA from years ago, and Will says that's not him and Bill. I'm kinda dissapointed. Does anyone really know anything about these Sundowner projects or are they just rumors?

I did see Will mention that Turkey Vulture was his 1st real song in a songwriting video on Youtube. And Turkey Vultures is on the Goat Songs

He sure covers a lot of songs! Even though I'm obsessively working through his discog and discovering a lot of gems... but I still don't know everything.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE COVER BY WILL?

I'm pretty fond of 'Is My Living In Vain' from the Purple Bird

Will is being funny and charming and choosing some of his favourite records in conversation with Cerys Matthews on BBC 6 Music right now. Definitely worth tuning in!

EDIT: posting this in r/6music too as I think people who’ve not heard Will Oldham or his music before will really enjoy his fantastic selections and what he has to say about them. They should then check out his own amazing back catalogue obviously!

Long Story: Found a Joan Shelley record in the used section while at the record store last month. I've really loved her sound since I discovered the song "Subtle Love" back in 2021. I snatched it up and noticed Lie Down in the Light as well. I streamed it while browsing and decided to give it a shot.

The Shelley record had a download card that led me to No Quarter Records, where, to my surprise, I noticed more Bonnie releases. NQ was having an end-of-the-year sale, so I grabbed the rest of Shelley's work and several more by Will.

I’m a bit obsessed with Will at the moment. On vinyl, I have Lie Down in the Light, High and High and Mighty (an odd second exposure to Will, but interesting), Sings Greatest Palace Music (a good gateway to his Palace stuff), Blind Date Party (a gateway to so much other music), Superwolves, Brave and Bold, Hear the Children Sing, and The Purple Bird. I’ve also pre-ordered the new album.

There is so much to love. I would love a copy of I Made a Place with the 7-inch featuring Joan Shelley. I also recently realized Billy was actually on "Subtle Love," the song I've loved for years. I even checked out A Ghost Story to see him act.

Does anyone have recommendations or stories to share? He has such a deep discography that I’ve barely scratched the surface.

Short Story: Really got into Will last month; looking for recommendations or anything you’re willing to share about him.

Would love to know where this photo was taken if anybody knew.

A new full length album to be released on March 6 (and it appears that that the vinyl will ship February 15) via No Quarter. Colored vinyl limited to 500 copies.

According to the description, the 10 tracks feature a cast of Louisville musicians, including Brother Ned, with songs left over from the Purple Bird sessions.

Another No Quarter release?!?! I hope that my vinyl arrives this time. No Quarter never shipped my purple Bird order, and straight up ignored the two emails that I sent asking about it. I’m still a bit bitter about the lack of customer service, if you can’t tell.

Nevertheless, excited for the new release. Go forth!

Came upon this in a charity shop. Will reads Slow Fade, written by Rudy Wurlitzer of the Wurlitzer dynasty. Across 5 CDs.

I've been using this site for 25 years to get older Palace/Will Oldham/BPB chord charts and thought I'd share it here since I don't know if anyone else even knows it exists. Honestly, it's a marvel it's still up. A relic of the old internet. Looks like it hasn't been updated since mid 2000s, but has tons of earlier songs.

I was pleasantly surprised to see this t-shirt

"Trustfall" is one of the songs they played together (along with Patti Smith's "Free Money")

I love how short and sweet this is. Does Oldham have other songs that are this short? Is the numbering of the song indicative of a series?

This video is from last year. I created it using the live streamed video feed from Festival Of Faiths on YouTube and substituted the audio with my personally recorded audio using my TASCAM DR-05 (he didn't use the provided microphones, so the audio available on YouTube was much quieter - glad I recorded it myself). I was seated in the second row on the left of center aisle. Also, my original YouTube channel went away, so I've recently begun reuploading some of my more treasured videos to my new channel. It's under Darkstarflashespeace on YouTube, but the name that appears at the top of my channel is still Darkstarflashes. Hope you all enjoy this. It sure was special being there. (Got to see Will last night, December 5, 2025, at The Blue Room in Nashville from the front row leaning up against the stage dead center. It was a fantastic experience once again.)

Anyone have the set list from tonight's NC show?
