DFA 1979
rip, dfa - it was fun while it lasted.
No commentsMercy, Mercy Me..

i wasn’t expecting much from a strokes/eddie vedder/josh homme collaboration on a classic marvin gaye track (note to self - give perfect circle’s cover of “what’s going on” another try), but this isn’t actually too bad. loses it a bit at the end, but it could be a damn sight worse..
here’re the original and the cover, respectively.. see what you think.

Joanna Newsom - Ys

so there’s a new joanna newsom album out, this time with an orchestral accompaniment.. i’m still trying to get my head around it, honestly, but it’s certainly starting to grow, in much the same way as the milk-eyed mender did..
