Cover Wars: Into The Mystic Edition

DaveO March 17, 2009 3 Comments

Way back in October, I had a great time compiling the And It Stoned Me Cover Wars and this week I find myself selecting another track off of Van Morrison’s timeless 1970 release, Moondance – Into The Mystic.

Apparently, there must’ve been some memo inside the “How-to-be-a-jamband” kit that was being distributed in the mid ’90s, because this week we’ve got representation from God Street Wine, Percy Hill, Strangefolk, Jiggle The Handle & Gov’t Mule. No – not all of those bands are included, but members of those outfits appear all over this week’s edition. Checking in on the Fearless edition from two weeks ago, the Marco Benevento Trio has emerged victorious with its instrumental rendition.

Clem Snide: Hungry Bird

Jason Macneil March 17, 2009 No Comments

he latest offering from Clem Snide might be considered some of their best or worst, depending on how diehard or loyal you are to the indie-rock stalwarts. Although they sound like an urbane version of Calexico on the leadoff number “Me No,” they seem to tone things down for a languid and limp “Born A Man.”

Volume 22: Jenny Lewis

Katie Cook March 17, 2009 No Comments

What can I tell you about Jenny Lewis that you don’t already know? Let’s see. She was first a child actress prominently starring in the 1989 cult fave, Troop Beverly Hills. Duh. Years later, she went a different direction and was crowned Indie Rock Princess after forming the band Rilo Kiley with fellow child star, Blake Sennett (of Salute Your Shorts fame).
