GBU presents Free Music Friday: Levi’s Revival Recordings 2010

I haven’t bought a pair of Levi’s in about 15 years.  Nothing against the company…just wear a lot of shorts.  So this isn’t some shameless whoring out to a big corporation.  Not that there’s anything wrong with some shameless whoring.  I’ll be more than happy to take cash from any corporation to hock their product.  That said…not sure what this series of music session has to do with Levi’s jeans.  Are the artists wearing Levi’s?  Who knows. The collection rocks and that’s all that matters.
 
13 currents artists cover 13 classic artists.  And it’s a solid selection on both ends.  The Kills do a crunchy cover of Velvet Underground.  Passion Pit do a minimalist cover of Smashing Pumpkins.  Raphael Saadiq nails a cover the Spinners’ classic “It’s a Shame.”  The Shins give Squeeze’s “Goodbye Girl” a coffee shop make-over.  And She & Him ressurect a classic take on Rick Nelson’s legendary “Fools Rush In.”
 
These along with The swell Season, Dirty Projectors, and Nas…among others are alll  FREEE!
 
Yes free.  Just go to their page.  Download.  And enjoy. 
 
Have a good weekend.
