Full Coverage (Vol. 2: Bob Dylan)

It's a rainy Saturday morning... and about time to put up another issue for Full Coverage. This one's most surely a crowd pleaser--it might be early, but we're gonna do Bob Dylan.

* * * * *

There have been so many renditions of Dylan tunes over the years to include, and I didn't want to steal from too many selections from the well-put-together I'm Not There soundtrack. So, among classics are some fun ones... enjoy!

Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands - Phoenix
Lay Lady Lay - Magnet & Gemma Hayes
Buckets of Rain - Neko Case
It Ain't Me, Babe - Johnny Cash & June Carter Cash
Ballad of a Thin Man - Stephen Malkmus & the Million Dollar Bashers
Down Along the Cove - Johnny Jenkins
It's All Over Now, Baby Blue - The Places
Fourth Time Around - Yo La Tengo
Blowin' In The Wind - Marianne Faithfull
Early Mornin' Rain (Gordon Lightfoot cover) - Bob Dylan

'So I best be on my way / in the early mornin' rain.'

Full Coverage (Vol. 1: MGMT)

Sunny Pittsburgh, PA has succumb to cloudy skies and thunderstorms in the past couple of days. No complaints here. It might impede my walk down to the Hop House for Monday karaoke and free pool night. But, dammit, it's been long overdue for some good ol' spring showers and cloud cover.

Let us rejoice in the rain and pay homage to the cloud cover with a new feature here on PSoV.

We'll start off with MGMT. Just about two weeks ago, they finally released their second record, Congratulations, on Columbia Records. MGMT is currently three dates deep in their summer tour of North America--check them out in a city near you.

We can never get enough of Oracular Spectacular, however. I present to you three covers of singles from their eclectic debut.

Time To Pretend - Jónsi
Kids - The Ooks of Hazzard
Electric Feel - Katy Perry
Closer (Nine Inch Nails cover) - MGMT
