Sometimes artists try to sound like another era, but often come up short. Other, rare artists, personally embody another era. That’s what we have here with Jack Klatt, a musician who embodies an era of classic folk music… and by classic I mean …
Hey Rosetta! – Graceland (Paul Simon cover)
This video doesn’t technically qualify under the arbitrary standards we have set for ourselves for youtube videos. However, it’s about a lesser known band and an amazing video. I’m not sure what more you could ask for. This is Hey Rosetta! performing “Graceland” …
