"Ohio River Boat Song"- Palace (Wil Oldham)

[enigmatic]

Wil Oldham's been around on the fringes of indie for over a decade now and I absolutely love the guy, weird quirks and all. I still think "I See A Darkness" is far and away the best song he's written, but "Ohio River Boat Song" is my favorite. A lurching rythmn, barely tuned guitars, shaky voices; it's like "Louie Louie" in the sense that it should sound horrible, but instead sounds glorious.

And the video goes perfectly w/ the song:
