was recommended an album to check out recently as an out and out lost classic.
all i remember is
female duo (US i think)70'ssupposed to sound a bit like early ebtg (or sunset gun)
and the crucial bit i cant remember...they were known by their first names only
Any ideas?

A few years ago, possibly as much as a decade ago, I read about an artist that I'd never heard of. Checked out their music and loved it but then immediately forgot all about them. Trying to find them again and would greatly appreciate anyone's help in translating my garbled memories into something...
Here's what I remember (and some of this may not be quite right):
- Super reclusive artist, didn't do live shows- Solo male- Two or three word name but not his actual name, e.g., The Magnetic Fields- Bedroom songwriter stuff, acoustic guitar, I think- Think he may have been on a fairly prominent indie label like Merge- Name of the act may have included something to do with water and/or the color blue- Released a few albums between the late 90s and mid 2010s

I recommend you start with the Shining Hours In A Can compilation to get back up to speed

Thank you! I can't believe it was actually Merge. I scanned their artists page but nothing jumped out. Appreciate your help!

And yeah your "garbled" memories were pretty accurate
