A few weeks ago, in a small spate of impulse music buying (damn you, iTMS! :) I tracked down and ordered a copy of Luther Wright & The Wrongs "Rebuilding the Wall", a Canadian bluegrass reworking of Pink Floyd's The Wall. It's... odd. Definitely very odd. And somehow appropriate.

The 'Lizards do a great bluegrass cover of "Dark Side of the Moon" too. It's actually a little more chilling than the original.
