Magnetic Fields ‎– 69 Love Songs

NEW VINYL 10" BOX SET ON MERGE 2019

6 X VINYL.

Initially intended to be performed as a live review, the compositions on 69 Love Songs are some of Merritt's most ambitious and diverse to date, but they still honor his time tested themes of life, loss, hope and beauty.
