Ahh Summer. Yards to be mowed, grills to be lit, beaches to be enjoyed, beers to be drank, sports to be watched and, obviously, all of this needs a soundtrack.
Enter the Lucero Message Board Compilation.
Yup. Like a superhero showing up just in time the new compilation was posted this week and I couldn’t think of a better way to close out this week than with a post about it. As always, you can head over to the Lucero message board for some dialog on why each song was submitted and while you’re there you can contribute to next months.

That Fox Hunt cover of Lucero is amazing. The boys have really outdone themselves on that one. Love the banter at the end. Live recordings are so much better than tracking!
yeah. you know….pretty much everything those guys do is totally off the chain.
I *love* TFH.
I saw The Fox Hunt in Carlisle this past weekend and they recorded the whole show. Maybe getting ready for a live album? I do know they were releasing a 7′ record and hitting the studio to finish up some stuff. They are great.
I like your cover art…a lot better than what I had…thanks!
The Fox Hunt covering Lucero? How fucking cool is that!?!
