This bit never gets old, but if you've never heard it ...

The obscure Tom Jones cover I remember the most is, inexplicably, "If I Only Knew," but the otherwise unremarkable (iirc) TVT band Rise Robots Rise. Rise Robots Rise seems like one of those bands where, if I looked them up, I'd learn that one or two of their members went on to be super-famous in some other band or as a producer, but I also bet ... not.

Looks like the last three records were all produced by Ethan Johns, which explains both the hip song selection and the sound, probably (Johns plays a lot of stuff himself, but there are some ringers on there, too). But these albums all seem pretty cool, I'll have to listen.
