“ Greg Dulli of Afghan Whigs/Twilight Singers/Gutter Twins fame just released a fantastic album, Live At Triple Door, which includes a phenomenal cover of George Harrison’s “Isn’t It A Pity?” with a coda of Donovan’s “Atlantis.” After listening to that track (about five times in a row), I sought out the original Donovan tune on YouTube. Lo and behold, here is Donovan doing “Atlantis” backed up by the Smothers Brothers, Peter, Paul, & Mary, and Mort Sahl. This version, too, is amazing.

The show I helped produce last year to benefit the Vera Project got plugged on Boing Boing. It was an amazing gig, the first in Seattle for my 14 yr old sister, and it was awesome to see the work of this fine musician benefit many musicians to come and continue to benefit music lovers everywhere. This smiley face doesn’t cut it right now but will have to do. :)
