Bill Callahan & Bonnie Prince Billy, Blind Date Party, 2021 on Drag City

Cover album collection conceived (and partly recorded?) during Covid, featuring many Drag City artists covering their favorites. Among the standouts are a “Deacon Blues” (Steely Dan) cover with Bill MacKay and a “She Is My Everything” John Prine cover – but all the tunes are great.

Callahan and Billy sent songs to collaborators with apparently little guidance – so it’s all a bit ramshackle but dynamic.

My copy—via Residency Records in Salem MA—has lacquer cut by Carl David Saff but does not say where it was pressed.
