Thursday Night Music Club (just what I needed ed.)

(from the A.V. Club)

saw the Punch Brothers once at OU and was blown away by this talented, multi-faceted "bluegrass" band and their amazing covers--their original stuff is really good, but it's the covers that really stick w/ you after. Here they are covering the Cars (I know!) on their hit from the '70s "Just What I Needed"--enjoy.


somewhere, my dusty 8-tracks are smiling . . .
