Robyn Hitchcock - Acoustic Covers, Volume 15: 2017-2019

As I mentioned in another post, I recently redid the links to all of the Robyn Hitchcock albums I've posted, because I discovered many of them had died. And there are LOTS of his albums posted here, dozens. So now is a good time to get some of his older albums.

Over a dozen of those albums are part of this series of Hitchcock playing acoustic covers, usually from concert bootlegs. That's the case here as well. All the songs are unreleased, and all but one come from concerts. The other one ("Not Dark Yet") comes from a radio show.

So if you liked the other ones in this series, you should like this one too. Unfortunately, it's the last one so far. After the Covid pandemic began in early 2020, Hitchcock stopped touring and began doing lots of home concerts instead. He's played tons of covers in those concerts, but it's a different kind of thing so I'll post them in a different way when I get around to posting some of that stuff.

This album is 48 minutes long.

Here are the original artists for each song. He loves to do songs by the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Syd Barrett, and that's definitely the case here.

01 A Day in the Life - Beatles
02 The Ballad of Frankie Lee and Judas Priest - Bob Dylan
03 Wolfpack - Syd Barrett
04 Not Dark Yet - Bob Dylan
05 Wined and Dined - Syd Barrett
06 Sound and Vision - David Bowie
07 Rocky Raccoon - Beatles
08 If You See Her, Say Hello - Bob Dylan
09 Ring Them Bells - Bob Dylan
10 Mellow Yellow - Donovan
11 God - John Lennon
12 Dear Doctor - Rolling Stones
13 Dear Landlord - Bob Dylan
