Jul 20, 2008 - I'm not so sure how I feel about the break down at the end. It doesn't really fit.

ClaudioDK1989 Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Someone said best radiohead cover ever??? yes sir!

ladybuggcla Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Part of the magic of Chris Thile--he could cover ANYTHING. Just look at Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground. And, the stuff he writes himself is even more amazing.

ladybuggcla Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Love them! Extremely sad to see Nickel Creek split, but at least I've got Punch Brothers to keep me occupied.

ladybuggcla Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - They led into a completely different song. I think it's "Watch 'At Breakdown". But it's late and I'm not 100% sure because, for some unknown reason, it all got confused in my mind.

Jul 20, 2008 - My head just exploded.

Canaan2011 Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - He is arguably the best mandolin player in the world. In my opinion he might be just as good or better than Ricky Skaggs. Amazing.

Jul 20, 2008 - hell yes!

tobyahhbahh Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - such a good cover!!

Shalebot Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - It is indeed Watch 'At Breakdown. This is how they ended a lot of their sets back in the TMB days.It would often be the first song they played, so it makes sense as a whole.

PubliusDiamond Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Best damn version of Morning Bell I ever did hear.

zahropit Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - looks funny , sound amazingbest cover

ladybuggcla Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - I've decided after hearing him do Toxic, Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground, Spit on a Stranger, etc., that Chris Thile can cover anything he wants. He's Chris Thile.

ladybuggcla Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - I love watching him play. He's so into it it looks like it's possessing him.

ptniff Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Haha, this is so good.

xavierrasul Says:
