this would have been perfect followed by the Shins' "New Slang"

I've heard that at least some of these guys evolved into Calexico. They do a version of this song with lyrics, that's pretty good as well.

Much prefer the Gary Jules cover, on the Donnie Darko soundtrack.

Very Ennio Morricone-ish.

That's the first thing I thought just now as I was listening. And no, it's not a bad thing!

Hey, doesn't Bruce Cockburn mention "Friends of Dean Martinez" in a song? ... darn, can't think of it right now ... but that must have inspired this selection. What's the connection?
Actually, I uploaded this song as a sort of joke. I mean, I definitely like the song, including the entire album, but I really didn't think it would be adopted for play here... Especially since RP has rejected most of my other uploads, including songs by Gordan Lightfoot, and America. Go figure! Anyway, I saw this song briefly featured on MTV in 1996 (again, go figure), and then bought the album. It really is a good instrumental album in my judgement though. :)

Very different, But it would be a nice balance to play Kristen Hersh's version off her "Murder, Misery, & Then Goodnight" album as a counterpoint.
