“Ladies’ Love Oracle is me in the raw, me in the dark, me in the basement. Sometimes a sketch says more than a mural” is what singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Grant-Lee Phillips said back in 1999 about his forthcoming debut solo record. Recorded over the course of three days in the basement studio of Jon Brion (the GRAMMY-winning producer of Fiona Apple, Aimee Mann and many more), Ladies’ Love Oracle was released following the dissolution of Grant Lee Buffalo, the widely celebrated trio that first brought Phillips to national prominence. The album was met with critical acclaim upon release, with AllMusic declaring that “Phillips joins the gilded ranks of Bob Mould, Mark Eitzel, and Kristin Hersh – songwriters who have flourished alone in the wakes of their respective bands.”

For the 25th anniversary of Ladies’ Love Oracle, the album is being issued on vinyl for the first time. The album has been remastered for vinyl by Mike Westbrook and is pressed on translucent orange color vinyl. This 25th anniversary pressing of Ladies’ Love Oracle is limited to 500 copies worldwide.
