Paul found an amazing blog called Cover Lay Down, exploring folk covers of pop songs and vice versa, and I'm slowly eating through the archives.

The way I usually do things like this (thankyou, Olin) is by rapidly inhaling everything familiar, first, and the edges and periphery get dragged along with. Lather rinse repeat until there aren't any edges left. What this really means is that P is happily devouring each article in depth, while I've blown through a year's worth of posts, and come across a real gem of an article on Tom Waits. It begins with
I somehow managed to reach full-bore adulthood without hearing a lick of Tom Waits. Which is probably all for the better: as I’ve noted many times, my long-standing preference for melodic voices is only now giving way to a mature appreciation of the unique beauty that springs from powerful truths filtered through broken instruments.

Apt, I think. Anyhow, check it out.
