"Fame and Wealth" is a 1983 album by Loudon Wainwright III. It was originally released on Rounder Records.After a five year hiatus since 'Final Exam', it eschewed the rock sound of his later 70's albums in favour of a stripped-down, wirier folk sound which would typify his recorded output from then on.
