Colin Meloy (Sänger der Decemberists) covert „Charlie“ von Shirley Collins.
Original und Cover.
Two of the most interesting things, in what is otherwise a straight ahead cover, are the usage of some sweet banjo and a female part. The vocals are provided by Colin’s girlfriend Carson Ellis, who is pregnant – congrats to them!, and the banjo by his friend and bandmate Chris Funk. Both of those elements add a lot of spice to this excellent cover.
