Today's Top Tune
The Decemberists cover R.E.M.'s Cuyahoga
When The Decemberists came to Morning Becomes Eclectic to perform songs from their R.E.M.-inspired release, The King Is Dead, I asked them to cover one of their favorite tracks by the Athens band. Colin Meloy and crew generously agreed and spent the next 20 minutes working out their cover of "Cuyahoga" exclusively for KCRW. The blogs went wild for it and now we can offer it as Today's Top Tune!
