Old 97's - Wish the Worst (live)
Solomon Burke - Can't Nobody Love You 
The Beatles - She Loves You (mono) 
Tom Waits - Somewhere 
U2 - Beautiful Day 
Steve Winwood - Higher Love 
Feist - Caught a Long Wind 
The Beatles - Paperback Writer 
The Beatles - Act Naturally 
Crowded House - It's Only Natural 

Major Beatles thing going on here. As with last month, it's not a surprise, since there's a lotta Beatles on the Nano. Didn't hear "Beautiful Day" enough at Target Field this year. (They play it after every Twins victory.)

09/09/2012
Drive-By Truckers - Self Destructive Zones
Beki Hemingway & Jonathan Rundman - Consolation Prize
The Capitols - Cool Jerk
Elvis Costello - Accidents Will Happen
Tom Waits - Burma Shave
Dolly Varden - Forgiven Now
Split Enz - I Got You
Patty Griffin - Goodbye
The Stone Roses - This is the One
The Beatles - All My Loving

Again, if you don't own Patty Griffin's Flaming Red album, what are you waiting for?

09/16/2012
Glen Hansard - Trying to Pull Myself Away
The 4onthefloor - Why Don't We Do It In the Road?
Toad the Wet Sprocket - Fall Down
The Lovin' Spoonful - Coconut Grove
Wilco - Art of Almost 
Uncle Tupelo - No Sense in Lovin'
The Replacements - I'll Buy 
Paul McCartney - The Inch Worm
Fountains of Wayne - The Valley of Malls 
Patty Griffin - Up to the Mountain (MLK Song) 

This is the third cover of "The Inch Worm" I've heard in the last five years (The New Standards and Dan Zanes are the others) and my least favorite of the three, but McCartney's Kisses on the Bottom is still a fine little record.

09/23/2012
Jonathan Rundman - Get Behind The Wheel
Mavis Staples - Eyes on the Prize
The Who - There's A Doctor
Tom Waits - Tom Traubert's Blues
Adam Again - So Long
Erik Brandt - Thoughtless 
Mason Jennings - Child Of Nature
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Learning To Fly
Craig Finn - Jackson
World Party - Way Down Now

That Mavis album (We'll Never Turn Back) is the best thing Ry Cooder's done in the last five years.

09/30/2012
Lucinda Williams - Buttercup
Buddy Miller - Worry Too Much
The Pogues - The Band Played Waltzing Matilda
The Coasters - Shoppin' for Clothes
Stevie Wonder - You Are the Sunshine of My Life
Elvis Presley - I'll Never Let You Go (Little Darlin')
Wilco - Why Would You Wanna Live?
Dwight Yoakam - Trying
The Who - Pure and Easy
The New Standards - I Will Dare

Nice Pogues cover of Eric Bogle's fine song about an Australian WWI veteran. The new Dwight Yoakam record's quite nice as well.

We now return you to This Week's Discussion Question, already in progress.
