Has anyone gotten a chance to listen to "This Bird Has Flown?" The 40th Anniv Rubber Soul tribute album.

 

A lot of really good covers and a couple good stiffs.

 

Highlights:

The Donnas surprisingly faithful rendition of Drive My Car

Sufjan Stevens does an amazing deconstruction of What Goes On.

Rhett Miller's version of Girl. It's like the song was written for his voice.

 

Disappointments:

The Fiery Furnaces - Norwegian Wood (Arguably the absolute worst track on the CD.)

Nellie McKay - If I Needed Someone. I don't know who she is and what she does, but after that track I hope I never hear of her again.

Ted Leo - I'm Looking Through You. It's an alright track, but its just not great Ted Leo.
