M. Ward , A Wasteland Companion, 2012 on Merge.

M. Ward’s 7th studio album, including a cover of Daniel Johnston’s “Sweetheart.” He’s joined by Mike Coykendall, Mike Mogis, Jordan Hudson, Adam Selzer and others, including vocals from Zooey Deschanel. M. Ward produced.

I just love M. Ward’s voice and his approach to songwriting and production – across his solo work and She & Him. (No, the “Me and My Shadow” is not the Irving Berlin/Al Jolson tune but a new song).

My copy—via Magnolia Record Club—is a signed 2024 reissue on metallic swirl vinyl with lacquer cut at Chicago Mastering Service by Jason Ward.

The Lone Bellow, Half Moon Light: Second Phase, 2021 on Dualtone

This EP followed 2020’s Half Moon Light with two alternate versions (“Good Times” and “Count Me In” plus four additional tracks recorded during those sessions. (Dualtone calls it “an addendum”).

My copy—direct from Magnolia Record Club—is what I think is the only edition, on “Black and Bone Swirled Marble” vinyl.

Various Artists, Magnolia Record Club Presents NPR Tiny Desk Concerts, 2022 on Dualtone

Sadly, heard last week Bob Boilen is retiring from NPR Music.

This record collects some strong performances from the Tiny Desk concert series – but really there are so many gems in the series it is just a bit of a taste:

• The Lumineers – Stubborn Love
• Brittany Howard – Stay High
• Black Pumas – Colors
• Tyler Childers – Lady May
• The Civil Wars – Barton Hollow
• Shakey Graves – Only Son
• Shovels and Rope – Birmingham
• Kathleen Edwards – Hard on Everyone
• Daughter – Landfill
• Yola – I Don’t Wanna Lie

Selections make sense for Magnolia Record Club and fit generally their curation (it was started by Drew Holcombe). Many of their exclusive pressings can also be purchased directly in the Magnolia Record Store – though I don’t think this one is still available.
