Hand-painted cassette dubbed painstakingly, also by hand, at the original speed. (One dot means "side one," two dots mean "side two.") It took much effort and love to bring these into the world.

lyrics
The rain came suddenly, the wind blew open the curtains. My heart it swelled up inside me, the water covering all surfaces. And when my wife came home—the carpet soaked, my desk dripping, me staring blankly at the wall, her wondering what she could be missing.
The thought came suddenly. I was walking round the town. I stopped at the baseball field, rested right there on the pitcher’s mound. We rushed to pack our things.
You left your job, we burned the landlord. We left our storage locker full.
You were suffering—frankly, you were bored.
And a half-mile from Allentown, you press your face against the window and watch the water coming down. You trace both sides of a rainbow.
Sleep came slowly. I was staring into black, surveying the last several years. Spool a memory, play it back, then play it from the start. Find the moment on the screen.
Pick apart a single gesture, try to understand what it means.

Luke & Ashley are two of the greatest musical minds I know. (The Chairman Dances' recordings are significantly better because of their involvement.) This record of theirs is incredible. -EK The Chairman Dances
Harrison is a truly excellent songwriter. I love everything of his, but this, his most recent album, is particularly compelling and lovely. -EK The Chairman Dances

It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track. Angkasawan
