David Gray on MBE
This was my first time ever hearing "Babylon" live and even though we figured out in master control that the song is nearly 10 years old, it's as poignant as ever. It truly is a classic. One of our KCRW volunteer photographers Jessica Holmes shot his show last night on our behalf and RAVED about it. His performance this morning on MBE was subtle and moving. Aside from the old favorite, he played a track off his recent covers album ("Long Black Veil," a Johnny Cash song he reinterpreted very well)
and let on that a new CD would be on the way soon. Keep an eye out...and in the meantime, check out today's set.RR
