I’m putting the Dawn & Phil tracks in reverse order from the original album, taking liberties to accentuate something

Damien Jurado
said recently when talking about Phil. He doesn’t imagine it worked out well for the guy. I hadn’t heard that so clearly back when we made the album, but I certainly hear it now. Listen to Dawn & Phil below. For paid subscribers, Damien and I trade more voice memos about the project. 🖤AV
