Top Six Sunday: Blues
To celebrate the return of Fleet Foxes with new record Helplessness Blues, here's six corking tunes with blue(s) in the title:
Neil Young: Revolution Blues - this seething track from 'On the Beach' displays Young's disillusionment with Laurel Canyon perfectly, channeling the spirit of Charles Manson:
Galaxie 500: Blue Thunder - this version is actually by Dean Wareham and Britta Phillips, but that's okay:
Fugazi: Blueprint - the godfathers of hardcore showing off one of their gems:
Laura Marling: Blues Run the Game - a gorgeous cover of Jackson C Frank's song:
Ryan Adams: Rescue Blues - remember that time Ryan Adams was good? If not, let this remind you. A song sung at the top of my lungs along with my old mate Barry on many a quiet evening in Waterstone's when we should have been working:
American Analog Set: Blue Chaise - AmAnSet are one of my favourite bands, and it's quite annoying they're not more prolific. This one is truly blue, and takes a while to get going...but it's worth it:
