Didn’t see that a new Bill Fay album was due next 20th on Dead Oceans until a few minutes ago. If it’s half as good as 1971’s Time of the Last Persecution, an album I learned to love some years ago due to the Current 93 cover of the title track, we might have a serious contender for album of the year. The first song off it, “Be at Peace With Yourself”, really exceeds my own expectations. Reading the tracklist for the new album, Life is People, and realizing there’s a version of Wilco’s “Jesus, Etc.” in it makes me want to pre-order it right now.
