Various - Weary Engine Blues A Tribute To Jason Molina

Review by Nurdan Tandan

Weary Engine Blues: A Tribute to Jason Molina is a heartfelt tribute album to the late singer-songwriter, Jason Molina. The album features various artists covering Molina's songs, and it is a fitting tribute to the man who left us too soon.

The album starts with the haunting rendition of "The Dark Don't Hide It" by Memorial Electric Company. The song sets the tone for the rest of the album, with its melancholic and soulful sound. Each artist brings their unique style to the songs, but they all stay true to the spirit of Molina's music.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Farewell Transmission" by Sarah Louise. Her interpretation of the song is stripped down and raw, and it perfectly captures the emotional weight of Molina's lyrics.

Another highlight is "I've Been Riding with the Ghost" by The Black Swans. The band adds a bit of a country twang to the song, and it works surprisingly well.

Weary Engine Blues is a beautiful tribute to Jason Molina. It's a reminder of the impact he had on the music world and a celebration of his life and work. The album is a must-listen for fans of Molina's music and anyone who appreciates heartfelt and soulful music.
