I've been listening to the tracks some time now, and I must really say I like it. Don't like to pick favourites, but EC's Bermuda Highway and O's O Is The One That Is Real sticks out in my opinion.

When is the second "album" due? I'd really like to give The Bear a chance with my band. Would be a great way to try and stick a MMJ-cover into our set list...

It is so cool that you guys got a copy to Jim and obviously pleased him with your efforts--2 thumbs WAY up ;D
Sittin' here with me and mine.  All wrapped up in a bottle of wine.

You know, I have to say that the boys get huge props for being so accesible to their fans, and even answering the NERDIEST emails you can imagine.  

Ooooooohhhhh the biggest love of all loves.  :)

You all did an amazing job on the tribute album. It's so awesome that a group of people with a great appreciation for music would come together to pay such a compliment to the band.

Ok, for some strange reason I'd never listened to these recordings before, it's great!

Not to descredit the rest, but I really like EC's songs.
What a lovely voice, especially your version of At Dawn, it's beautiful.

Nice work all of you!

hey guys, just starting coming to this site, read this entire thread and what a smashing effort you guys have made. All the songs are top drawer. I'd love to be involved in the second volume if it happens.

I'd like to contribute 'the way that he sings' or possibly 'steam engine' (a bit long maybes but id be up for it). If someone else desparately wants to do them I can change tho.

cheerS!

Yeah, we'll definitely do another one soon.
I'll start a new thread so it will be easier to keep up with everything.

I've arranged a version of 'How do you know?', slightly inspired by Cat Power's rendition of '(I can't get no) Satisfaction'. And I'm planning to totally fuck up 'One big holiday.' :)
I'm ready when you are

Wow.  I'm getting excited.  'wiggum, it was around this time last year that you put the word out, wasn't it?  Maybe it's tiiiiiiiiiime?  

No idea what song I'd like to do.  Maybe an acoustic version of Cobra.  I'm not joking.  Live from the floor.  I'll just pick one of our versions of the lyrics.

And play it on xylophone.  ;)

(whoops, I'm ahead of myself - it was July.)

I'm still waiting one more song for the DBT tribute. Once that monster is wrapped, we may start it up over here again.

(I still need to pick a song too).

Yeah EC's - At Dawn does sound good!
