2024 repress. "Hold your breath -- now let it go.
Bonnie 'Prince' Billy
's
Greatest Palace Music
is back on vinyl for the first time in a generation. In 2005, it followed the release of Bonny's
Master and Everyone
. It may have seemed a novel idea at the time, but the 'Prince' was simply taking a page from the old masters of country and western music, addressing a swath of old favorite numbers with new performances. He's done something similar several times since, with
Now Here's My Plan
,
Singer's Grave a Sea of Tongues
, and (under the nom-de-vie,
Will Oldham
),
Songs of Love and Horror
. The
Greatest Palace Music
recordings were done in Nashville with a studio full of session cats old and new, addressing only the pre-Bonny material released as
Palace Brothers/Songs/or Music
, the originals of which can be found on the albums
There Is No One What Would Take Care of You
,
Days In the Wake
, and
Lost Blues and Other Songs
. As befits an album of 'Greatest' whatever, the tunes were given plush, enormous, near glacial treatments as they were played and sung again, and sound, even at a distance of nigh-twenty years, to be bigger than ever."
