Was thinkin' I would agree. But for the purists, there is far too much style borrowed from Led Zepplin. |

I honestly thought this was a Joe Strummer cut I had never heard before.

This has nothing in common with Mumford and Sons. It does use a banjo, but it doesn't beat us over the head with it.

Hey Bill just followed this with "Salt of the Earth" from the 'stones. The Maori harvest the birds by grabbing them from their underground burrows. The mutton bird is the salt of the earth! Spoooky. This is another reason I find this place so compelling. Bill often links songs in his '5 piece sets'. . . . sometimes obvious - sometimes obscure, sometimes with words, sometimes with style of music, sometimes with humour. . . sometimes not at all. |

Shearwater is now 2 for 2 in my book. Second tune I've heard from this that I like. On a roll, boys!

But it does sound like No Quarter so I strongly suggest that everybody not like this song. Seriously.

Hi, Bill! If you insist playing this song, I'll call The Police.

No, I do not hear The Police at all. Really? Other than this song having different chords and a different melody, it sounds just like "King Of Pain".  |
