Clarence White is a legend guitarist and member of the country-era Byrds. He co-invented the Parsons-White B-bender that allows country players to mix steel guitar riffs in with a standard guitar. MS owns the very first guitar to have the prototype B-bender that he got from White's widow. White was killed (possibly putting that very guitar into his trunk after a gig) when someone rear-ended his car. Marty hasn't just looked at this guitar- he has been using it steadily for decades. It's the most famous guitar in country music along with Buck and Don Rich's matching Teles, Willie's Trigger, and Merele's tooled-leather Tele.
The "curated with and dedicated to" wording is so confusing I have no idea what to expect...
Sounds like some of her records and some of curated selections.
Same, it SOUNDS like it's her albums, picked by her as a monthly sub. In this case, I'm not sure this is an exciting proposition. Definitely not something you're going to stick with long term if you're a fan.

Yeah White was a legendary player. Tragic death, hit by a drunk driver while loading his gear into his car.
That's him on Sweetheart of the Rodeo, Ballad of the Easy Rider and all those great late underrated Byrds albums from the late 60s.

My Marty Stuart looks real weird.
Motherfucker, this definitely means my Coup is gunna be a Marty Stuart.
Well chances are you’ll get a free record out of it, even if you didn’t ask for it. Bummer on not getting what you were supposed to the first time though.

Fulfillment team must’ve been……… busy bees.
They apparently serve Genocide and Juice at Busy Bee Cafe.

If you don't want it, I'd be more than happy to take it off your hands!

If they let me keep it, I’ll listen to it before I decide what to do with it:

I also would be stoked if you enjoy it. It's not my favorite Coup album, but I also don't believe there's a bad Coup album.
They were also a highlight show for me, nearly a decade ago now - oversold basement club with a killer full band (unfortunately paired up on a bill with some indie rock band fronted by an absolute chucklefuck, though)
Boots Riley is definitely a top tier frontperson.

Actually, the first link is to what I assume will be the sign up page and is a blank store page. The second one is a link to the blog which is clearly not live and creates the 404 error.Dolly sub is dropping this week, got a 404 error right now but should definitely drop by end of week.
