Welcome to my Palace/Will Oldham/Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy vinyl-only discography which I’ve compiled from various sources such as Discogs, the superb Royal Stable website, and the appendix of Will Oldham On Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy (2012). The list below appears in chronological order of material bearing the name of Will Oldham or one of his various dramatis personae, but excludes appearances in others’ work and various artist compilations. And at the very bottom of this list, I’ve started a new section entitled “Cover Albums.” I will be writing interpretive and descriptive commentaries on all formats below. Click the “Alan Bumstead is…” link above to learn about my modus operandi. Click the “Vinyl: Bonnie Prince Billy” category link over to the right to read my preamble for this project. The formats not highlighted in blue are redundant, in that the exact same tracks are available on the release(s) immediately preceding those titles. NB: Prince appears in each entry according to how it’s printed on the sleeve. i.e. single quotes ‘Prince’, double quotes “Prince”, or simply Prince if none at all.
