We re-wrote each other’s songs, and recorded them — now you can buy the tape!
Sam Cook-Parrott of Radiator Hospital did his homework, arranging and recording lo-fi garage versions of four Ribbons of Song tunes, and I’ve returned the favor, lovingly choosing and recording five Radiator Hospital tunes in my moody folk-pop style.
Sam chose to cover these Ribbons songs:
Summer Storm
Pillar of Salt
Curlytops
Me and My Fervent Hopes.
I do my best to quirkily folkerize his punk love songs:
Illtock
Janelle
Zen Arcade
Bummer Summer
Swear Off Love (my personal favorite.)
The resulting homemade tape, Radiator Hospital/Ribbons of Song “Do Each Other,” is now available through mail-order from Curious Lacunae. We’ll be selling them at shows for 5 bucks!
Looking forward to the next tape,
Ben
