Hard to top The Impressions for a bit of heartache…
A touch self-interested as it came out on the TSMM label, but this one hurts in the most beautiful way.
This one never fails - that voices + those strings!
The breakdown melts me every time!
And of course…
Oof. Holes. Wanna see a grown man cry?!
Saw them play it in a tv studio when Deserter’s Songs was released. Myself and a very small audience standing in a circle around the band. Powerful stuff.
Billy Bragg has written so many songs with poignant lyrics, but for me this tribute to his dad gets me every time. If my kids chose to play this for me when I’m gone, I would be honoured.
At the top of the stairs is darkness….
The late Jason Molina first heard on the Death in Vegas All back to mine…
I’ve heard this played in some slo mo after hours mixes over the years
Pretty much anything on the Verve’s A Northern Soul album but especially So It Goes
Beta Band, Dogs Got A Bone
Cool & Deadly
Great version of a timeless classic
