I really loved this interview. Super interesting insights into working for/with Drag City including arriving at their decision to finally open up to streaming. Bill Callahan is poetic and funny as always. On song ownership (and readiness?):

I don’t feel like I own the songs at all. If somebody wants to try to sing them, they can. For me to be happy with a song, I need to ask myself if it can go and play with other songs. Can it hold its own at a cocktail party of songs?
