Kelly Buchanan – I Hate To See You Like This

Being funny when writing a song is really hard.  Times and tastes change and sometimes a joke isn't funny the 30th time you have heard it.

My two favorite songwriters who are consistently funny are  John Prine and the Fountains of Wayne team of Adam Schlesinger and Chris Collingwood.

Adam passed on pretty early on in 2020 from Covid, much like Prine. This recording was from a tribute done in 2021.  There is a certain weight to the performance given the reason for the show but I love the way Buchannan belts this out.  Great tune, great performance.

Andy Pratt – Avenging Annie

Sometimes I find old songs or records and they seem really interesting and fresh to my ears considering they are 50 years old. Then I talk to people who were around when they came out and they tell me this band sucks and it is uncool to like this song.

Not sure which was this one goes, but Rodger Daltrey covered this song when he went solo. Doesn't touch the original though.  Couldn't find a live version from when this came out so here he is doing it ~10 years ago on some radio station in NH. A pretty cool song/performance if you ask me.
