Cry Cry Cry! One of my favorite one-off bands (folkies Dar Williams, Richard Shindell and Lucy Kaplansky) get some love from the podcast. I know there are a ton of other covers out there, way too many to fit on one podcast, but two I would have liked to hear were End of the World by Great Big Sea, and Sweetness Follows by Kathleen Edwards.

They asked if there were other songs that had an additional songwriter. The only one I know of is "Old Man Kensey," written by Jeremy Ayers of Athens, GA, along with B/B/M/S.

There has been a lot of Radiohead talk during the R.E.M. series. I could also see a limited series focusing on soundtracks, cast albums, or other compilations.

Great ep. My favorite recent collab is Peter Buck playing all over The Decemberists album "The King is Dead." "Down by the Water" is practically an R.E.M. tribute song.
