Grace Potter - Twilight Hour, Volume 6 - Home Concert, Topanga, CA, 6-22-2020 to 6-29-2020

There's such an overwhelming amount of good music that hasn't properly appeared on album that I want to post on this blog that I sometimes feel overwhelmed. I've been doing this for over two years, but it seems like I still have an endless amount of albums to post. For instance, the surge of home concerts due to the coronavirus pandemic has largely subsided, but I still have a bunch of them from 2020 I haven't gotten around to posting yet. Here's another one from Grace Potter, but I have three more in the same vein after this one.

This album is a compilation of two of her "Twilight Hour" live Internet broadcasts. The first one was all cover versions. Those are the first six songs. She mostly did well known songs but she also did a few obscurities. She played a song by from Spirit, "Topanga Windows," probably inspired by the fact that she lives in Topanga Canyon. She also did part of "Another One Rides the Bus," which is the Weird Al Yankovic parody of "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen. And she did "The Weary Kind" a song by Ryan Bingham that was featured in the 2009 movie "Crazy Heart."

The second show, exactly one week later, focused entirely on her 2015 album "Midnight." She played a majority of the songs from that album. As I've expressed with previous album postings, I generally prefer the way she does her own songs in her "Twilight Hour" shows over her album versions. I suspect the album versions are too fussed with and overproduced, whereas these versions are done with a band, yet, but they have a stripped down approach that works well.

This album is 56 minutes long.

As with most of the other albums in this series that I've posted, I've used Potter's own artwork for the album covers, taken from her Instagram account. I doubt either of these shows fit the "Songs of Togetherness" theme expressed in the art, but that's okay. ;)
