Walt Mink's cover of Nick Drake's "Pink Moon". Sebadoh's cover clearly influenced the later Walt Mink version. Sebadoh is silly, which you would expect from an album whose title spins the title of John Entwistle's first solo album. Walt Mink really turns the song into something else, something bright.
I should clarify "silly", as it has nothing to do with the instrumental performance. Low Barlow screaming the chorus is... okay, that's not silly. Yes, it's silly. It was silly when I first played it on my first ever radio show in 1993. It's still silly. That's not a bad thing. It's just... silly.
Oh my god, I love Nick Drake, and I love Sebadoh, and I didn't know that existed. That's fantastic. And ridiculous. I love it. Walt Mink's cover is pretty good, too. Not usually my sort of music anymore, but it's good. I've never heard that song sound so upbeat.
