Despite the fact that he’s capable of crafting quietly ear-stunned original records of bleakly radiant acoustic introspection or moving, Crazy Horse-inspired rock, one of Mark Kozelek’s greatest gifts as a musician and performer is his ability to reinterpret other songwriter’s material and blending it into his aural world of gentle sepia beauty. Unfortunately—with the exception of the excellent AC/DC acoustic covers record What’s Next to the Moon (2001) and the Sun Kil Moon takes on Modest Mouse that is Tiny Cities (2005)—most of these covers have been scattered throughout various compilations, both in-and out-of-print, and left to the purview of hardcore collectors. The Finally LP aims to rectify this, culling ten cover songs originally written for children’s shows, benefits and tribute albums, as well as wholly unreleased material, such as Kozelek’s cover of “Celebrated Summer,” as well as a handfull of unreleased instrumentals. And yes, diehards, there’s even a cover of AC/DC’s “If You Want Blood,” just for old time’s sake. Travis Woods, prefixmag
