Occasionally, a couple of things will come together to create something classic. This is one of those times.
Just ahead of their US tour which kicks off in New York on June 28th, alternative legends Yo La Tengo have uploaded a new contribution to Spotify’s Singles Series.
In this case, it’s a distortion drenched, six minute tour-de-force…that just happens to be a cover of a deep Neil Young cut. You can hear ‘Time Fades Away’ below…and you won’t be sorry.
