It's also on the Chelsea Walls soundtrack. Sung by someone other than Jeff, but I'm not sure who.

That disc also has a killer cover of Jealous Guy by Little Jimmy Scott.

It's no Cookie Party.

I just watched I'm Not There, the Dylan(esque(ish)) film with Cate Blanchett. If you're a Dylan fan, you're gonna like. (Bonus: David Cross as Allen Ginsberg!)

Mr. Music still cracks me up. But my friend went there to buy an acoustic last week.

I read this after seeing Larry's review. Great book.

I also remember, as an REM fan in 1985, hearing they had hired Joe Boyd to produce Fables of the Reconstruction, and thinking "Who's he?" Of course, I didn't know who Nick Drake was then, either.

I took your suggestion and enjoyed the documentary. Nels really does rip it up on some of those "rehearsal" numbers. I will say SBS sounds bet...
