Ian Hunter (ft. Jeff Tweedy) – Words (Big Mouth)

MP3: Ian Hunter – “Words (Big Mouth)” featuring Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy on backing vocals, from the Mott the Hoople leader’s Yep Roc debut, Shrunken Heads, due May 15. This track also features the E-Street Band’s Soozie Tyrell on fiddle.

Tweedy has been known to cover Mott the Hoople’s “I Wish I Was Your Mother” which might be one of the saddest songs ever written, and “Henry and the H-Bombs” which is not sad at all.
