One autumn evening, Andrew McClain decided to use the persuasive power of Evan Williams Fine Kentucky Bourbon to get Albert Hoover to come play a few songs in his apartment, which he recorded on his elderly MacBook.
Over two hours of covers and originals were recorded that evening, and Sean Penn and Rod Stewart were talked about at length. Andrew later edited this raw material down into the “Muscadine Wine” session you are now about to download. Here’s the tracklisting:
1. you ain’t goin’ nowhere (bob dylan)
2. the night they drove old dixie down (the band)
3. [Albert and Andrew banter about how Paul Walker is probably the best actor of our generation, Albert talks about his favorite Sean Penn movies, we sing a couple of Faces songs, and banter]
4. Albert starts playing jolene by Ray LaMontagne, but says “fuck this song” at the first chorus and starts playing his original, muscadine wine
5. friend of the devil (the grateful dead)
6. slave song (albert hoover)
7. plastic jesus (notably used in the film “Cool Hand Luke”)
8. without you (badfinger/harry nilsson)
9. thirteen (big star)
10. dead flowers (the rolling stones/townes van zandt)
11. iced tea with lime (albert hoover) which goes into a cover of where did our love go? by the supremes
