Coming out next week on the new release platter, is the new Beatles cover album,
This Bird has Flown. It marks the 40th Anniversary of the release of Rubber Soul. All of those tracks are featured here, covered by Ted Leo, The Donnas, Ben Harper, Surfjan Stevens and others. Here's the complete track listing.
1. Drive My Car – The Donnas
2. Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) – The Fiery Furnaces
3. You Won't See Me-Dar Williams
4. Nowhere Man – Low
5. Think For Yourself – Yonder Mountain String Band
6. The Word – Mindy Smith
7. Michelle MP3-Ben Harper
8. What Goes On MP3-Sufjan Stevens
9. Girl-Rhett Miller
10. I'm Looking Through You MP3-Ted Leo
11. In My Life – Ben Lee
12. Wait – Ben Kweller (featuring Albert Hammond Jr.)
13. If I Needed Someone – Nellie McKay
14. Run For Your Life – Cowboy Junkies
We have to say, after hearing four tracks off the album, it's pretty disappointing so far. Only Ben Harper's rasta cover of "Michelle" has any potential so far.
Hear clips from the whole album here.
