As an unapologetic Counting Crows fan I feel obligated to repost some news I saw on Stereogum. The Counting Crows have set a release date of March 25 for their first studio release since 2002′s Hard Candy. It is divided into to parts; rockers (Saturday nights) and acoustic/country tunes (Sunday mornings). They have also made one track from each section available for free download on their official site.
Tracklisting:
Saturday Nights:
Sunday Mornings
- Washington Square
- When I Dream of Michelangelo
- You Can’t Count on Me
- On Almost Any Sunday Morning
- Anyone But You
- Le Ballet D’Or
- On a Tuesday in Amsterdam Long Ago
- Come Around
Sticking with the Counting Crows theme, I recently stumbled upon a live recording of The Crows covering Bruce Springsteen’s song, Atlantic City. They do a pretty good job but it really pales in comparison to Hank III‘s version…which, personally, I like better than the original.

Atlantic City is a great song but I prefer III’s version as well. That guy has a knack for making a cover his own.
