Alejandro Escovedo at the Music Farm
What a great show!
Alejandro played mostly songs from his new album "Real Animal" including a song written for Iggy Pop. He also dedicated songs to Ron Asheton and Joe Strummer and their influence was definitely felt in the songs he played, especially "Chelsea Hotel '78".
His new album is a look back at his career with bands like the Nuns, True Believers and Rank And File.
The sound was great and all around me people were having a great time. If you get the chance to see him, do so.
