    i would listen to the Waterboys cover almost anything.

    I do wish they were better recorded.

    Not a reimagination or anything revolutionary, but dude does John Prine better than John Prine. If I came into this blind without video, I'd just think someone caught Prine's voice on a really good day.

    Neither here nor there, but this song also makes me really, really sad.

    Sorry to circle back around, but Billy Strings posted a full hour long concert of Grateful Dead cover on Christmas Day. Including a bluegrass cover of Dark Star (?!?!).

    I get that its kind of hyper niche, but like they say, "if you know, you know".



    Set list:
    00:00 - Deal
    06:35 - Rosa Lee McFall
    09:56 - Peggy - O
    17:02 - Oh Babe it Ain't No LIe
    20:38 - Samson & Delilah
    29:50 - China Doll
    35:30 - Dire Wolf
    39:24 - Brokedown Palace
    43:58 - Dark Star
    52:28 - Wharf Rat
    1:00:51 - U.S. Blues

    Was scrolling YouTube for this song since I think it’s my favorite from the Who. I’m sure there are other covers but this one’s pretty good. The original isn’t particularly energetic so there’s probably others I like as well:
