Shame and Sedition | Smithsonian Folkways Recordings

Conceived amidst profound change and calls for revolution, Shame and Sedition is the sound of Lula Wiles amplifying the present moment. Each song grew from personal revelations or yearning for collective reckoning, materializing into proclamations against powerful oligarchs, toxic relationships, …

This is shaping up to be great based on the singles. The previous edition with Doug Carn is incredible as well and available cheap on eBay, in 45RPM.

Bummer you missed it. You don't want one without the other?

It would always feel incomplete without the other.
I was thinking too long about the purchase because shipping was way too much and now that I've missed it, I'd prefer to buy both from Brooklyn Vegan...

I know that I've got a vinyl problem.

I can't speak for this particular release of course but Lula Wiles is one of my favorite local acts up here. Really in the wheelhouse for Americana fans. They would be on a short list for RotM if I ever curated for one here.

Damn. Just realized that ordering from Hello Merch I was able to get 20% any other merch with the record. I wish I noticed that and bundled with the chopsticks. I snagged a koozie when I ordered her first record that I use all the time.

Afrique Victime

On May 21, 2021 Matador Records will release Afrique Victime, the long-awaited new album by Mdou Moctar. On Afrique Victime the prodigious Tuareg guitarist and songwriter rips a new hole in the sky - boldly reforging contemporary Saharan music and “rock music” by melding guitar pyrotechnics...

Thought this was a reissue of the last album at first with the similar covers. Anticipating this one. They also put a new song out today that is quite different from the last. Much more chill. Looks like it will be a nicely varied album.



Anyone know if the Matador store charges you up front for pre-orders? Trying to decide if I'll jump on the Nigerien flag variant.

Went with the Pink Glass one without signature for $31 shipped. The End of An Ear exclusive is $27 shipped. Wish I had went with that one but oh well. A signed LP sleeve I never understood since I’m not going to display it and it’ll spend the majority of time on my shelf tucked away. A signed poster would be cool depending on what it looks like.

I went with End of an Ear (local pickup) for ~20, since i will undoubtedly be leaving my current shipping adress by June.


With you on the signed LP's though, I usually forget I own a signed cover until I pull it out and go "oh that's neat" and then I don't think about it till next time.

It's not weird that I chose this variant because it comes with a small notepad, right?

I use these TTL pads for all my notetaking and I guess I've become a bit too attached.

Our release of the 7-LP set Dick’s Picks Vol. 36 is now sold out on our website. Thank you so much for the amazing support. We will take into account how quickly this title sold out when contemplating press runs of future Dead LP releases should we be so fortunate as to do more titles. All of us...

Done. Bundled it with one of the new shirts cause I love the art. Wish I had seen the chopsticks cause I would have added those too…

I have a stack of about ten of them on my WFH desk right now. They are a good size.

That’s all well and good but I prefer paying $24.99 for a single notepad and then getting a record for free.

What do people write on these? I find them infuriating. I like to doodle and write on blank paper. I’m not sketching remodel blueprints. Au naturel baby. Swing low, sweet Dunder Mifflin.
