"Think About Your Troubles" by Mutual Admiration Society

 

Only t' Mutual Admiration Society's final track, shiver me timbers, a winkin' cover o' Lawless Nilsson's "Think About Your Troubles," truly comes alive. T' band turns t' shanty - a wry, arrr, convoluted story about self-pity - into a scrappy shuffle. T' shanty fades out, then fades back in t' a furious mandolin solo from Nickel Creek's Chris Thile. Begad! This inspired bit o' playin' is exactly what t' other songs needed, matey, but as great as it is, it's too little too late. Ahoy!
