Elle Cordova & Toni Lindgren - Sunday Mornings with Elle and Toni, Volume 5: 2018

I just posted an album of Morgan James doing all acoustic cover versions. That reminds me of Elle Cordova and Toni Lindgren, so here's another album of them doing all acoustic cover versions too.

If you've listened to the previous four covers albums of theirs that I've posted, this is more of the same good stuff. (And I have lots more to post.) But this album stands out for the number of lesser known songs, at least for me. I've previously mentioned that one thing I appreciate about this duo's covers are that they have a knack of picking excellent obscure songs and mixing them in with classics. About half of the songs here are like that. 

As an extreme example, note the song "High Five" by the band Sigrid. I highly doubt anyone here has heard of her, unless maybe if they live in Norway. She's a Norwegian singer who was so new at the time of this album that she hadn't even released her debut album yet. But Elle Cordova and Toni Lindgren heard this song while they were on tour in Norway, and liked it so much that they decided to perform their own version of it.

This album is 46 minutes long.

Here are the original artists for each song:

01 Post War - M. Ward
02 Sugar, We're Goin Down - Fall Out Boy
03 High Five - Sigrid
04 Bells of Harlem - Dave Rawlings Machine
05 Butter and Eggs [Instrumental] - Julian Lage & Chris Eldridge
06 Stuck in the Middle with You - Stealers Wheel
07 Silver Lining - Rilo Kiley
08 Make You Feel My Love - Bob Dylan
09 Rocky Top - Osborne Brothers
10 Sister Golden Hair - America
11 Don't Know Why - Norah Jones
12 Hold You in My Arms - Ray LaMontagne
13 Ellie's Song [Through the Valley] - Shawn James & the Shapeshifters

This duo likes to record their Sunday Mornings videos in interesting locations if they have the opportunity. This is a screenshot from a video recorded overlooking the Mississippi River as it passes through Minnesota in 2018.
