MP3: Pelle Carlberg - Summer of '69
Pelle Carlberg is my favorite artist on Labrador. He's got a strong wit and an intellectual air about him that's all too rare in music these days. Yes, the music is still quite twee and yes, even quite fey, but I still do like it. Now don't be confused by today's songtitle - this "Summer of '69" is most certainly not the Bryan Adams tune. No, it's just a pleasant little pop song about Pelle's year of birth. A simple song with a sweet sentiment. And don't forget- Pelle is playing London next week at myspace.com/tacktacktack" target=_blank>Tack! Tack! Tack!. It should be a good time, so be sure to come out if you're in the area.
