Finally managed to replace my copy of Delusions Of Banjer, that wonderful debut by the inimitable Bad Livers from Austin, Texas. My original copy fell victim to cd rot, I kid you not. To celebrate, here's a prime example of their modern twist on bluegrass, produced by Butthole Surfer Paul Leary. Banjo, fiddle and stand-up bass go wild, folks! And as a bonus track, as it's one of the greatest cover versions I've ever enjoyed, you get to hear them do the Pop, too.
Bad Livers - Uncle Lucius
Bad Livers -Lust For Life

So far, I've had two discs succumb to the dreaded cd rot, Ramone - both of them out of print now! Grrrr . . .
I'd forgotten all about this version of 'Lust For Life'. Brilliant.
