Justin Vernon and his buddies record an entire album of songs inspired by 10cc's "I'm Not In Love" ? Sign me up. "The Gaudy Side of Town" and "The Last Prom on Earth" are the best cuts, but their cover of Godley & Creme's "Cry" is the piece de resistance.
Here's a live performance of "The Gaudy Side of Town" ...
Shortly after I started my career at UW Credit Union, my buddy Howard Goldstein introduced me to 88.9 here in Milwaukee, which has become the only radio station I give the time of day to these days. This was one of the first things I heard, and loved instantly. And for you trivia buffs out there, this was the first album I ever bought on iTunes. I still enjoy this as much as I did when I first heard it a little over 10 years ago.
I think "Brass Digger" would be a good introduction, if you're hearing this band for the first time ...
