Originally released on Bonnie Prince Billy Performs Songs Of Kevin Loyne 7". The label people misread Will's handwriting and turned a C into an L.. you can find Kevin Coynes version on Babble from 1979.
Back in 1998 I released a 7" by a guy called Will Oldham with two Kevin Coyne covers (I confess & Sun Shines Down On Me) under the name... Bonnie Prince Billy. This was BPB first record ever. Attached to Cru Magazine #11, with a run of 1000 copies only, people went nuts with it!
This song is straight nostalgia bourbon for me. First time leaving the island I grew up on took a train to the Pacific Northwest with the closest friend I ever had first time I heard this I immediately made him listen to it too. Well goddamn.
