“The final set of 13 tracks includes eight covers, highlighted by a quirky twist of The Temptations’ Motown era classic “Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)” that does Dylan and Lou Reed proud, and a punked up cover of “It’s Now Or Never.” His nuanced approach to other familiar classics like “Bad Moon Rising,” “House Of The Rising Sun”— as well as a ballad version of The Proclaimers’ “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” and a cover of “Black Betty” that reverts to the original Leadbelly vibe–bring out the emotion of the lyrics like few previous versions have.”
