One Track Mind

Vinyl

One Track Mind: Jerry Garcia Band, “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” from GarciaLive: Volume Four (2014)

Jerry Garcia’s take is simply enveloped in an atmosphere of absence.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: Shooter Jennings, “4th of July” from Put the O Back in Country (2005)

I still can’t figure out why this wasn’t a huge summer hit.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: Roddy Frame, “Postcard” from Seven Dials (2014)

It’s been eight years since Aztec Camera’s Frame last released a solo disc.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: Tweedy, “Diamond Light Parts I and II” (2014)

Another song emerges from Tweedy’s new solo album, along with a bonus track.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: The Stooges’ James Williamson, “Open Up and Bleed” from Re-Licked (2014)

Add a blues belter, and this little-heard early-1970s Stooges demo is reborn.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: Days Between Stations with XTC’s Colin Moulding, “The Man Who Died Two Times” (2014)

Moulding disappeared from music in 2007, but he’s been slowly working his way back.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: The Autumn Defense, “Moods” (2014)

John Stirratt and Pat Sansone of Wilco take on a new cover song as the Autumn Defense.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, “U Get Me High” (2014)

The Heartbreakers offer plenty of edge, but what stands out is what’s not there this time.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: Bobby Hutcherson, David Sanborn + Joey DeFrancesco, “Delia” (2014)

This is one finger-licking, chin-wagging, cool-side-of-the-pillow triumph.

Vinyl

One Track Mind: Robyn Hitchcock, “The Ghost In You” from The Man Upstairs (2014)

A synth-driven Psychedelic Furs song might not seem like a great cover idea. But it was.
