Jay’s cover of The only Living Boy in New York this morning reminded me of The loneliest Boy in the State of Nevada (37 views), by The Lonelyhearts, my favourite band a decade and a half ago. I loved their albums Dispatch and Disaster Footage at Night. I have no idea why they have hardly any listens on Spotify and virtually impossible to find on YT.
I covered New Virginia (with family & friends) a couple of years ago and sent a link to the band
Here’s their generous response
It’s not as cool as John says, so I’ll share the original which I had to upload myself and only has 51 views (as opposed to over 300 of our cover )
There’s no justice in this world…
