Some nostalgia and emotion: From 6 years ago. Emily...pure voice. Together, simple & powerfully evocative Nanci...delightful. Danny Thompson on bass too! (and with lyrics like this, hard to argue Bob's Nobel Prize for Literature...)

melbo.bandcamp.com/album/trillionaires-cd-1I discovered this yesterday on Bandcamp, free download. "cover versions of popular tunes (albeit in a garage style). They were also Chch based and featured, amongst others, John Christoffels (Terminals), Mick Elborado (Termals, Scorched Earth Policy, Axemen), Malcolm Grant (Builders, The Bats)." Very enjoyable take on many classics. Also on that page are links to two other free downloads published under the moniker Minus2. If you are a fan of Chch post-punk you may find these to your liking.
We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.

Well ! ...here we go chaps - the ultimate americana version? an insightful matey Philipb comments: "can we see a led zeppelin cover of 9 to 5" and further... Joe Schmoe says: "Now if Robert Plant does a cover of Jolene....well watch out you don't get hit by pieces of my exploding head."

Roberta Flack discusses her new record, Let It Be Roberta: Roberta Flack Sings The Beatles. (2012).
Her version of Come Together
I think I prefer the wonderful eccentricity of Petra Magoni and her bassist, here live, better in studio:

Sometimes I regret posting after a few glasses of wine, wonder whether to delete or double down.
This is the track I first heard of Petra Magoni & Ferruccio Spinettii, as Musica Nuda.
Nature Boy
It was coming from a local FM low power station, I rang about midnight to ask who that was, got the answer.
That led me to explore more of their work.

Lisa Ekdahl - Nature Boy
One of my favourite Ekdahl tracks. I wish she'd release her stuff on vinyl.

Been listening to This Mortal Coil , Dust and Guitars last night . Among the tracks a cover of Tim Buckley's Song to the Siren. Still have it on 12" single somewhere as well.

Cooks, I would only ask as I know you've been selling things - A) if you find the 12" and B) decide to sell it, please ask me first. Many thanks in advance, Dom

Are you there Cooksferry? "...red hair and black leather, my favourite colour scheme..." Great song, great line. Unfortunately a bit like Stairway to Heaven, heard it too many times. He really tears it up on guitar live. Still rate the lp it came from, Rumor and Sigh, as my personal #1 RT release. Be nice to loose 40 years and have one final sunny day with an attractive young lady on the back of my Norton carving up the Lindis Pass or the Cromwell/Arrowtown road.
