Jonder again, with an update to a collection of Wire covers that I posted a few months back. I promised another set, and I actually have FOUR in all. Here's the second volume, and I'm reposting the first one. A blog reader named Lewdd sent me a cover of "Mannequin" by the band Track The Curse -- thanks!!! Another reader recommended the Wire covers by the Feelies, so I've got their take on "Outdoor Miner" today, and their performance of "Mannequin" coming up in Volume 3. Wire continues as a band to play and record, and this year they released a mini-album called Nocturnal Koreans.
