Jon Bernhardt played this on WMBR this morning -- a perfectly appropriate
cover for this band. The disc also includes a video track, "El Kabong
Rides Again." You might have seen this on Cartoon Network a few years ago,
a gorgeous piece of woodcut-style animation set to a soundtrack composed by
Calexico.
He also played a new song by Fontaine Toups (ex-Versus) that has me looking
forward to the album.
