Iron & Wine and Calexico Cover “Always on My Mind”

Boy do I love a good cover song. The fine folks over at My Old Kentucky Blog do a periodic feature called MKOB Covers Project, where they pick a classic song and highlight the best (and worst) covers of it. The latest entry is “Always on My Mind”, originally recorded by Brenda Lee (I always assumed it was Willie Nelson…guess I learned something today). One of the covers they highlight is Iron & Wine with Calexico, from an NPR recording of a live show. Kick. Ass.
