Even If Nobody Else Sings Along

LMP (la musique populaire) “Hits Of ’69” – This is a selection from LMP’s A Century Of Song project, in which the duo recorded a song from every year of the 20th century. Apparently they could not decide on just one song from 1969, and so they created this epic disco medley covering The Archies, The Beatles, Jackie DeShannon, Joe Cocker, The Velvet Underground, The 5th Dimension, Joni Mitchell, Frank Zappa, Simon & Garfunkel, Miles Davis, Pharoah Sanders, and several others. There is a great deal of joy and reverence for the source material in this track, but it is almost completely devoid of the suffocating Boomer nostalgia that usually infects any tribute to this specific era.
