Can’t really hit the high notes, but still a pretty good cover.

He can really do a cover. In addition to all the covers on his albums, I love his cover of I Never Go Around Mirrors.

In other Sturgill Simpson info, he did an extensive interview with Steven Hyden about frustrations with the music business and (this might be the writer speculating more than Sturgill) that he might not want to tour after this current tour.

Hilarious story from an SR-71 pilot.

When collecting as many songs as I could for a Saint Patrick’s Day DJ season, I came was given this album by Dessie O’Halloran. Horrible voice, but something about it that very catchy. For years past, Spotify only had a reggae infused version of the first song (which I’m glad I can’t find), and now it has the album version I first heard:

And apparently I posted about this dude before.

I guess we could/should cruise into some Irish Not On Spotify songs. I haven’t researched why, but I am upset that my favorite Tosser’s albums are not on Spotify.

From Communication and Conviction: the Last Seven Years, Buckets of Beer is great, Paper and Pins was included on the cd’s I gave out at my wedding, Seven Drunken Nights and Finnegan’s Wake are classics, and the live version of Irish Rover (can’t find it other than the preview here) is worth playing over and over if only for the intro banter of “All right, you fucks, this is the Irish Rover”.

Every St. Patrick’s day season I would force their version of Tell Me Ma in the rotation, for no else’s enjoyment other than my own.

I guess he has a new YouTube channel and so far they are dumb but also funny but short enough to watch quick.
