While I often feature 80’s music on my Sounds of Saturday, The Avett Brothers are (somewhat) contemporary. I discovered this amazing group via my Tweep, Gerard P., who writes an amazing Tumblr site called The Music of Running. Gerard and I see eye to eye on lots of music and when he mentioned TAB on Twitter, I checked them out and I haven’t been able to stop listening to their albums since I started!
“I And Love And You” is a song that mentions and was filmed in my beloved Brooklyn (where I’m visiting this weekend). This version was from a post Hurricane Sandy Jimmy Kimmel Live episode and features the Brooklyn Philharmonic. The orchestra accompaniment made me think of the “Daltrey Sings Townshend” concert I worked on so many years ago which made it a definite “gimme” for Sounds of Saturday.
Enjoy and I’ll see you Monday!
