if you take one thing away from my tumblr it should be me begging you to listen to the original version of clay pigeons by blaze foley, not the indie version by michael cera. for the love of country music, please.

#this isn’t even hate to mr cera it’s just if one more person thinks he wrote it im gonna scream #blaze wrote it! blaze deserves love and he has a gorgeous voice #a lotta ppl think prine wrote it because he did a cover of it #and to be fair blaze was a huge john prine fan so clay pigeons sounds a bit like a prine song he’d write himself #but no #blaze foley is great and one of my biggest writing inspirations #blaze foley

Song Review: Los Cenzontles feat. David Hidalgo - “A Rainy Night in SoHo”

Los Cenzontles’ recording of “A Rainy Night in SoHo” is both quite similar to and radically divergent from the Pogues’ original.

This is the brilliance of the track, recorded with Los Lobos’ David Hidalgo on vocals, accordion and percussion, as both a tribute to Shane MacGowan, who died in 2023, and for Los Cenzontles’ forthcoming Covers 3 project.

“It is a glorious song,” Los Cenzontles’ Eugene Rodriguez sid in a statement. “Now we have a Chicano version.”

This “SoHo” remains a languid waltz. But the new version is transplanted from Ireland to the U.S./Mexico boarder, with Hidalgo at the fore and a Mariachi arrangement that marches with Hidalgo’s snare drum on the outro.

Due in June, Covers 3 will feature Los Cenzontles’ interpretations of songs by Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan, John Prine, the Rolling Stones and others in what’s described as an album “celebrating cross-cultural connections.” If “A Rainy Night in SoHo” is any indication, it’ll be a joy to hear.

I started this set a half-hour early (for fun), and so it ended up being two-and-a-half hours long instead of the usual two hours. It was a pretty weird (and fun) setlist, featuring a few things I don't play that often: "Badlands," "Ice On The Mountain," "Amie," (which I hadn't played in at least two years), and the second-ever version of "China Cat Supernova."

As you can tell from the setlist, more than a few of these performances were a little rough. What stood out as the highlight of the set was this sequence, which started off with a extra-loose version of "Machine," which ended on a mostly-successful segue into the fast version of "Idyll." Rather than ending directly, "Idyll" moved into a weird, one-chord jam with some chimey, looped guitars (hence the name "Chimes Jam"), which ended by dropping into a cover of John Prine's "Bruised Orange," the first version of that song to feature a jam as well as a "standalone" harmonica solo, which I played sans guitar while a number of guitar loops were running.

Fun times! See you next week! Setlist and notes:

John Prine: I Remember Everything

John Prine began his professional career as a mailman in Illinois. He went on to become one of America’s most beloved singers and songwriters. If you are a fan of Folk and Country Music, then you know John Prine. His music was a blend of humorous lyrics about love, life, current events, and songs recounting melancholy tales from his life.

For those keeping score, here are Brandi Carlile’s SIX (in a row, mind you) Grammy performances

The Joke - Brandi Carlile

This performance punched her industry darling ticket. At this point she had a a ton of critical good will amassed, but finally had a mainstream cultural moment with this astounding performance.

Bring My Flowers Now - Tanya Tucker (feat. Brandi Carlile)

Something about Brandi and the love and care she takes for her musical influences and ensuring that the public remembers their greatness while they are still here to benefit

I Remember Everything - John Prine (covered by Brandi Carlile)

Something about him being the first person she ever played The Mother for, and also being her gateway into the greater Americana community.

Right on Time - Brandi Carlile

This performance f*cks.

Broken Horses - Brandi Carlile

It’s possible the whole album f*cks. (In These Silent Days is my favorite album of all time)

Both Sides Now - Joni Mitchell (feat. The Joni Jam)

I don’t know, smarter people have said it better. No end in sight how emotional this is, and the love and care that created an environment where it could be.

#brandi carlile #Brandi’s self perception of who she is an artist #versus what she actually puts out into the world #I don’t think she’d ever describe herself as an artists artist and yet

fav bg cover

thank you for the submission!!

not sure if you meant all of them but i’m going to do this in 4 parts!! (phoebe, lucy, julien, all)

#i have no idea which of these are popular so my bad if the best one isn’t included lmao #phoebe bridgers #bgpolls #its prayer in open d for me

[if-only-angels-could-prevail]

yesterday i sang someone to watch over me at piano karaoke and the guy named steve that i was sitting with was like "you could have changed the lyric if you wanted, you know! no one would have minded!" and my mind first went to "to my heart he'll carry / he carries the key" but then steve was like "you could have sung 'the man some guys think of as handsome'"

which i thought was a very bizarre thing to say. like yes we're all gay here, obviously. sure. but that's just not the lyric. "guys" is a worse word than "girls." and it got me thinking about how like, the act of covering a song at all means taking on a persona of sorts, playing a character.

idk i think it's almost as silly to change the lyric of a song to make it gay as it is to make it straight.

lydia tár voice: you want to dance the masque, you must service the composer, sublimate your identity. john prine voice: i am an old woman, named after my mother. luke combs voice: i work in the market as a checkout girl.

The Pretenders - s/t

No one sounds as dismissively cool as Chryssie Hynde. Somehow the blend of new wave, power pop, and punk manages to be catchy and aggressive. On the first half of the album the lyrics are confident, often sexual sung in a matter of fact way. She wants to fuck, and you'll do, but you're not special baby. By the second half the music calms down a bit and we get a few new wavier tracks. It's a tight little snapshot of the unique change that rock music was going through in 1980.

George Michael - Faith

Whenever I listen to this album I really wanna like it. And I do like it! Sorta. It opens with three extremely strong tracks. Faith and Father Figure are bangers and I Want Your Sex is the nine minute funk jam of my dreams. But I kinda lose interest over the course of the whole thing. It always loses me on side two for some reason and by the time Kissing A Fool starts I really just want it to be over. The good bits are just bursting with sensual vanity though so it's obviously worth a listen. And who knows maybe this one will grow on me if I listen to it a few more times.

Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska

I can't describe this album in any way that would do it justice. Nebraska will pick away at your brain until it unearths an emotional scab that you thought was long healed. Its stripped down lo fi acoustic songs are so personal yet so universal. I think I put on Nebraska hoping that this time it will tell me everything is going to be ok. It never does, but I listen to it anyway. Because at the end of every hard earned day people find some reason to believe.

John Prine - s/t

John Prine is so unassuming at first glance. Oh a few cheeky folksy tunes some sorrowful country ones yes that will fit in nicely with the 70 adult contemporary scene. But it's impossible to really listen without realizing just how biting the cheek is, just how genuinely sorrowful those tunes are. You notice that he isn't just someone cobbling together popular musical styles. That mix of folk rock, country, and Appalachia is so uniquely Prine's. He can turn a phrase with the sophistication of a poet, but without a hint of self satisfaction or irony. And the disarming humor of songs like Illegal Smile or You Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore make the tragic songs like Sam Stone or Six O'Clock News hit even harder. He's unfortunately overlooked everywhere except for on lists like this and in other musicians record collections.

Frank Ocean - Channel Orange

This album is what the entire neo soul genre was building up to. A sorrowful meditation on love, fame, and money with intensely introspective and personal lyrics. Ocean battles with his feelings over some of the most perfect instrumentals ever created. There's a little funkiness here and there, some strings at times, but mostly stark emptiness accentuated by cold synths and distant drums. This production is what makes it all come together. The way that Thinin Bout You is almost acapella pushes the tenderness to it's extreme. The church organ sound on Forrest Gump evokes Motown in a way that is fitting for his ode to his first love. Super rich kids plods along, with a constant thump as it dispassionately reaches its tragic conclusion. Pyramids is a nine minute prog soul epic that describes the diminishing of black women's role in society using Cleopatra as a metaphor. Every song has some particular quirk that makes it perfect while also feeling like a cohesive part of the album. Channel Orange might be the best album of the 2010s. Channel Orange might be my favorite soul record (top 5 at least). This is required listening for all humans and probably some other animals if they're into music.

Jeff Buckley - Grace

Jeff Buckley is primarily known for his cover of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. And the sweeping beauty of that song is just a sampling of what the album Grace has to offer. There is no end to the flowery flourishes, falsetto'd vocals, and fiery guitar that inhabit these songs. Some, like Hallelujah itself stay well within the confines of delicate art rock. But much of the album lulls you into a dreamlike state before crescendoing into soaring electric guitar solos. It's an extremely dramatic album filled with excesses both emotional and musical. Buckley's only fault as an artist is that he died before he could record another album.

I'm spending tonight getting ready for my first backpacking trip of the year (!!), so I won't have time to play a live set until next Thursday.

Please take one more clip from my "more-weird-than-good" set from last week, this one comprising a run of songs close to the end of the set, as a form of penance:

Better To Have Loved -> # Angel From Montgomery (John Prine) -> Better To Have Loved > # Cassie’s Song > California -> ! Casey Jones (The Grateful Dead) > Montana !## # Slow version ! w/ "Molly" teases ## w/ "Acteon's Groove" ending

See you next Thursday from 6-8. More than likely.
