Here is a cover of “16 Tons” played by Father Hennepin with Al Sparhawk adding in a great Marc Ribot-style guitar solo.
Tim Nelson also makes a guest appearance, banging on what I think was a piece of Al’s washing machine. The song was from a demo tape recorded shortly after Homegrown II, where Al joined Father Hennepin on stage for some Father Hennepin classics as well as a couple of countrified Low songs.
Speaking of old Father Hennepin recordings… does anyone have a live recording of their version of “Waitress in the Sky”?
