MP3 of the Day
On this day in 1967 the Monkees performed in Seattle, WA. On this same day in Belleville, Illinois, Jeff Tweedy, from the band Wilco was born . In 2007 Tweedy said: “I’ve definitely felt inspired by all of the musicians I’ve been able to play with in Wilco, but in terms of finding a perfect scenario of living with and interacting with a band – on the road, and in the studio – this is a new feeling for me. If we all lived together, it would be like the Monkees.” Today we have the song Randy Scouse Git by the Monkees.
Tullycraft Tuesday
As some of you may know there’s a Tullycraft tribute album called Wish I’d Kept A Scrapbook coming out on September 14. If you simply can’t wait for that release, perhaps the new EP by the Glasgow based band The Awkward Turtle will hold you over? It’s called F*ck Me I’m Twee! An Awkward Tribute To Tullycraft and it features this terrific cover of Georgette Plays A Goth. Enjoy!

On this day in 2006 the Swedish band Lacrosse, performed five songs at a Stockholm music festival called Vieille Montagne. One of the songs was a cover version of the Tullycraft song “Superboy & Supergirl.” I haven’t heard their rendition, but I’m told it was wonderful. Today we have The Manhattan Love Suicides‘ cover version of Superboy & Supergirl. Enjoy!
