the verlaines + shayne carter - some fantasy
this week, not something new, but something old. this cover of carter’s band (the doublehappy’s) “some fantasy”, recorded with the verlaines, is so good, i still go to it instead of the original. scaling, climbing guitar work and wonderful vocals abound for those who give it a listen. 10/10.
