My playlist of the best music from the worst year. Hope you enjoy some of it and I hope others will post their best tunes of 2020 too.
Oh, man, I kind of feel like a terrible person for some of the internal reactions I had to that guy, but he is a great musician and that cover is awesome.
Neko Case is one of my all-time favs, I have seen her live 3 times solo and twice with The New Pornographers. My personal favorite:
I love Neko Case as well. I think I’ve seen her twice solo and twice with the NP’s at this point. Blacklisted is probably my fave album by her, but there are so many wonderful songs, hard to choose one.
I’ll join the Neko love fest here (seen her 3 times solo and once with the NP). I’d put Fox Confessor Brings the Flood as one of my favorite albums of all time, and if I had to pick a favorite track, I’d go with John Saw That Number.
Love that album. Saw her for that tour, which had a date here very shortly after 9-11, and we feared they might cancel it. But they didn’t. And people all showed up and were nervous and sort of defiant too. And then she tore into “Kamikaze” and “Big Exit” back to back and completely blew the roof off the place. I still get chills remembering that.
