In the year 2000 - shortly after releasing what would become his most iconic album, 'I See A Darkness' - Will Oldham aka Bonnie 'Prince' Billy retreated to his family's farmhouse with the majority that 'I See A Darkness' lineup in tow to record a half dozen covers of some of Oldham's favorite songs. The track listing is, as expected, inspired and eclectic: John Phillips, PJ Harvey, Bill Withers, The Renderers, John Holt, and Tim McGraw. Bonny Billy's renditions are equally inspired and eclectic, ranging from slow-burning uneasiness to uncharacteristic jubilance. Originally released exclusively on limited edition CD in the pre-MP3 era, 'More Revery' was gone before iTunes existed, and has not been available in any format since. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of Temporary Residence Ltd., they are honoured to reissue this essential piece of the Bonny Billy canon - now expanded to include rare live versions of the entire album!
