The Beta Band, "Dry the Rain"

From The Three EPs, and central to a memorable scene from High Fidelity.  For additional reading, check out this Guardian piece from a few years back, which ponders their break-up and inexplicable lack of mainstream acceptance.  Enjoy!

(NOT QUITE) OPEN REQUEST SUNDAY: Bread, "Guitar Man"

Our cab driver turned entertainer when this song came on the radio yesterday,.  His ringing endorsement (he enjoys playing it on his guitar, too) convinced me that if he knew Tuna Day existed and had an Open Request Sunday, he would most definitely vote for some Bread.  Enjoy!

OPEN REQUEST SUNDAY: Jack Johnson, "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer"

Courtesy of Maura, here's a delightful take on the old classic...


But Rudolph--he didn't go for that
He said, "I see through your silly games"
How can you look me in the face
When only yesterday you called me names?


Enjoy!

Sparklehorse & Radiohead, "Wish You Were Here" (Pink Floyd Cover)

From the compilation album Come Again... From what I have just read, Thom Yorke's parts were recorded over the phone in his hotel room to mimic the sound of the original.
