If all Michael Jackson musical tributes were this good, I would be OK with the steady stream of MJ covers to keep popping up for the rest of humanity. If you like this, you can also check out a good take on Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin from the same show. Randolph & The Family Band play the Fuji Rock Festival in Japan on Friday, and their next USA gig is August 7th in Kansas City MO.

Artist & Title: Son Volt – Cocaine & Ashes

As this song starts, you can hear Son Volt front-man Jay Farrar say that this song is for Keith Richards. Of course it is, because the song is about how Richards supposedly made a powdered concoction that was one part his father’s ashes and one part Colombian Marching Powder. According to recent remarks made to Spinner, Farrar was inspired by this. Son Volt plays a double-bill with the Cowboy Junkies tonight in Seattle.
