Notes
From Bill's Dreamsville website:
"Picture Post is an instrumental album issued on the Sonoluxe label in a single print run of 1000 copies. The album was created from the soundtrack that Nelson was commissioned to write for a documentary called American Stamps, broadcast by the PBS channel. Attendees of Nelsonica 08 were treated to the premier showing of American Stamps on 1 November 2008.
The album was recorded in 2007, and was originally to be released in tandem with another album, but the past practice of releasing albums simultaneously had proved uneconomic. So from Picture Post onwards Nelson’s albums would appear on a ‘one at a time’ basis."
