Editorial Reviews
Over the years Mark Kozelek of Sun Kil Moon and his earlier band, Red House Painters, has gained well deserved praise for his extraordinary songwriting. At the same time he has developed a parallel reputation for his unique covers of other people s material. Many of these tracks were recorded for tribute albums that are now unavailable. Caldo Verde Records has now collected them in a cohesive, 10-song LP titled The Finally LP. Highlights include a bluegrass version of ''Lazy'' by Low, ''Bedtime Lullaby'' from the children s show Yo Gabba Gabba! and an intimate, acoustic version of Stephen Sondhiem s ''Send In the Clowns'' recorded for the Minneapolis Bridge Disaster Benefit CD. The album also includes radio show rarities, a previously unreleased version of Husker Du s ''Celebrated Summer'' and two original instrumentals.

Not essential, but buy it anyway,
By armenianthunder (los angeles) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Finally LP (Audio CD)
Chances are, if you're already familiar with Kozelek's work (whether it's the Red House Painters, Sun Kil Moon, or as a solo artist), you're going to buy this, because you're probably a tad bit obsessed. And you should buy this, because he can sing pages from a legal dictionary and make it sound like the saddest poetry ever written. However, this is not an essential record, at least not by his usual standards. But then, these kinds of odds and ends collections are not usually supposed to be. That said, there are some great moments here, and they tend to be the covers: Husker Du's "Celebrated Summer," the country-sweet take on Low's mournful "Lazy," and Will Oldham's "New Partner," all of which make this CD worthy of your hard-earned cash.

Absolutely Essential,
By Soren (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Finally LP (Audio CD)
The CD is a magic time warp. If it's in the CD player I'll sit in the car for two hours even when I've already gotten home.

Something about Mark Kozelek's music must cause a release of endorphins in my brain. His is comfort music.
