Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

Vetiver and Fruit Bats covered I Must Be in a Good Place Now by Bobby Charles. They made a sweet rendition that’s maybe even more mellow than the original.

Mix #8: RIP Bobby Charles, Earthquakes Suck

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Cover for Mix #8

So I noticed kind of not much news about the death of Bobby Charles last month so I wanted to put together this little mix tributing the shit out him, and then some funky stuff, some Prince — Ooh, relevant social commentary! Woah! And it rocks — So then, Bobby Charles was kind of awesome. He worked with The Band and a bunch of other famous dudes, like he was in The Last Waltz and erythin’. Read about Bobby Charles at Wikipedia coz he dayed now and listen to a song here in Mix #8.

And a track by new kids Cults are really amazing and open this mix up like a jewelry box.
