About The Wayward Bus

The Wayward Bus is the second studio album by American indie pop band The Magnetic Fields, released in 1992 by record label PoPuP. As with the band's previous album Distant Plastic Trees, Susan Anway acts as lead vocalist on The Wayward Bus, which is the last Magnetic Fields album to feature her in this role. Subsequent albums would see the Magnetic Fields' chief songwriter Stephin Merritt and other band members take on lead vocal duties. Merritt acknowledged the influence of Phil Spector on the first half of the album: "It's a comment about Phil Spector songs. The second half is whatever I had lying around. Most people listen just to the first half of the record and assume it's all like that, a Phil Spector tribute or something, which it really isn't."
