To Be Still – Vinyl LP (Brown)

This is a limited edition repressing on Brown opaque vinyl of Alela Diane’s much-heralded second studio album dating from 2009 which features her now-familiar songs Take Us Back, White As Diamonds and Lady Divine. At the time, Spin magazine said: “Accompanied mostly by her acoustic guitar, newcomer Alela Diane sings stark, ghostly folk… She’s already flaunting a large, lived-in growl flavored by antediluvian blues and jazz inflections.”
