Title: Grace Potter covers "Golden"
Post by: Seeker on Nov 10, 2008, 01:26 PM
I saw Grace Potter and the Nocturnals in Denver Saturday night, and I was blown away. A local music blogger wrote about the show and posted this cover by Grace of "Golden" (which they didn't play Saturday, although covers of Paint it Black and Down By The River were excellent)

I was just looking at a fan site for her.
http://www.thisissomewhere.com/
On the home page is a music player, and one of the songs is "Get Better Mr. James". She introduces it by saying she is a huge fan of MMJ and Jim James had to cancel an appearance at Madison Square Garden because he had pneumonia. So she wrote this song. I am kind of a MMJ newbie so I don't know when this was, but now that I am learning about his Iowa accident, maybe she needs to sing it again!

"Get Better Mr James" was from a show on 12/30/2005 in Boston at The Paradise. You can find it on archive.org at this link:

Oh yeah, This Is Somewhere (linked above) is my site. I told Grace about Jim's accident the day after it happened.

Has she played it since the fall?
