Brandi Carlile - Cover Songs, Volume 4: 2015-2017

This is Volume 4 of my six albums of Brandi Carlile doing cover songs. I don't want to repeat myself too much, so I'll just say that she has a fantastic voice and excellent taste in cover songs, so this is a good listen.

In terms of sound quality, nine out of the 14 songs are officially unreleased. Sometimes that can mean dodgy sound, but as I said with earlier albums, I've maintained high standards. I have musical associate Lil Panda veto the inclusion of a few that were borderline.

When it comes to song selection, the vast majority are undisputed classics. But she does do a few songs that are more recent and lesser known, including an Adele song. Perhaps some of them will be considered classics someday.

Here are the original artists for each song:

01 Mary - Patty Griffin
02 Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen
03 River - Joni Mitchell
04 Angel from Montgomery - John Prine / Bonnie Raitt
05 God Only Knows - Beach Boys
06 Lovesick Blues - Emmett Miller / Hank Williams
07 Red Dirt Girl - Emmylou Harris
08 I've Just Seen a Face - Beatles
09 Going to California - Led Zeppelin
10 Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen
11 Tie Your Mother Down - Queen
12 Cleanup Hitter - Shovels & Rope
13 When We Were Young - Adele
14 Mad World - Tears for Fears

Here's the song list:

01 Mary (Brandi Carlile)
02 Hallelujah (Brandi Carlile)
03 River (Brandi Carlile)
04 Angel from Montgomery (Buddy Miller & Brandi Carlile)
