• Track Listing

Vinyl LP pressing of this 2010 release. After seeing the overwhelming response to Safe Inside the Day in February 2008, the peerless Baby Dee returns with a Book of Songs for Anne Marie. What was overwhelming about the response was the pure reaction to the purity of expression in Dee's music. That dizzying sense of self is again an essential feature of this new music. While the last album was lit with the production fire of Will Oldham and Matt Sweeney producing, a Book of Songs for Anne Marie glows softly with the calming presence of Maxim Moston (arranger of some standing and part of Antony And the Johnsons' touring band). in essence, this album is a prequel to Safe Inside the Day. The songs here were released in a different set of recordings and in a limited-edition book form (150 copies!) on David Tibet's Durtro label back in 2004. For most listeners, this is it's first outing. 12 tracks.
