Tugboats

Unable to contain my excitement at the prospect of a new Mercury Rev album for a few of their tunes to whet my appetite I was digging around the darkest recesses of my hard drive when I came across a surprise. It is Mercury Rev doing Galaxie 500's Tugboat. I don't know how it got there, I certainly don't recall hearing it before (although I do suspect Simon SVC may be responsible). It is corking, unfortunately I think it is from late-period so it doesn't have David Baker singing (remind me to tell you the tale of the time I interviewed him sometime). I have also included the British Sea Power version from the Rough Trade compilation Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before, mainly because Ean is the only person who regularly comments on my blog.

Haha thanks Dec. It is a good tune, heard it a few times before but never actually had it. Unfortunately that version is just skipping for me, starts off normally but about 5 seconds in it starts skipping and carries on for the rest of the song :(
