Mp3: Joey Cape – Dreaming (Blondie Cover)

Joey Cape (Lagwagon) has released a track from his personal archives as a free download.  The track is actually a Blondie cover, and comes with an interesting back story to boot.  Joey Cape explains on his website:

“The story of how the recording came to be is nice one. I was on a US acoustic tour with Jon Snodgrass and Chad Rex a few years ago and this guy, Shaun Colón contacted me thru My Space about his studio in Dallas, TX. He generously offered to let us come in the day of our show there, free of charge (A one time deal I’m sure) and record a track. Well, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity but, I had no idea what song to record and no time to get anything new together. Chad and I started discussing possible covers and for whatever reason we agreed on “Dreaming”, a song from a female vocal, perspective. Ha ha. Anyway, I have always liked the song and the studio turned out to be an amazing space. The guys running the system, Shaun Colón and Kevin Kotzur, turned out to be good guys and great technicians. It was an awesome experience. I highly recommend working with them.”
