The shuffle occurred in the morning. The post in the afternoon. Not a cover shuffle, but one very sweet cover song... Wild ride this morning. Here goes:
The first song is dedicated to Rex Silo - toking on some cathedral mountains... "they say he got crazy once and tried to touch the sun." that Colorado Rocky Mountain High - John Denver. Oh yeah...
Next up - yeah yeah, I should probably rename the blog The End Men to the Ground blah blah blah... truth is I'm really digging on this album right now... so put your sorry's in a sack... or something... Anyway, today I listened to They're All Gonna Cost Ya which features some mighty fine vocal dueling from Matthew and Frittata.
Finally, just before I listened to the second End Men track of the morning (see the previous post), I came up with a cover song and man what a sweet sound.... Erin Dickins was a founding member of The Manhattan Transfer. She recently connected with me on Twitter and so today I offer up a song from her new album Nice Girls. This one is a cover of a song originally performed by Julie London and co-written by Bobby Troup (who was married to Julie London). From my childhood, I know they will forever be nurse Dixie McCall and
Dr. Joe Early from Emergency!. Anyway, the song is a smooth jazzy pop song called Nice Girls Don't Stay for Breakfast.
