Various - Sweet Relief II: Gravity of the Situation - The Songs of Vic Chesnutt (1996) (@320)
This one is for Vic Chesnutt, for whom I mysteriously forgot to have a tribute.
A wide range of artists (from R.E.M. to Madonna...) offer to us covers of his songs.

His songs are so much better sung by him. I know some people feel his voice is an acquired taste but none of the covers of his songs do them justice. But it's nice to have him remembered, anyway.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, Lou. I also prefer his albums than this one.
ReplyDeletebtw, this must be the fastest comment for any post in this blog.
Where's the download link?
ReplyDeleteHad about 1 minute to do the job so I forgot it!
ReplyDeleteAlthough I agree with Lou, still I'm positively surprised (even by Madonna, I'm ashamed to admit...). Thanks for the upload, Alan. I didn't even know such tribute was released.
ReplyDeleteOh, and you might like to know that track 12 (Indigo Girls) seems to be corrupt.
Ola, thanks for the notice. Reuploaded. Hope it works now.
ReplyDeleteReupload please?
