Rainy Day Music: Mazzy Star Edition
All these years, I thought Mazzy Star wrote "Five-String Serenade" and that the White Stripes uncharacteristically covered Mazzy Star. Then, several months ago, upon having discovered 60s garage rock band Love thanks to the White Stripes, I discovered that Love front-person Arthur Lee actually wrote "Five-String Serenade." Suddenly, the White Stripes' choice of cover didn't seem so uncharacteristic. I still like Mazzy Star's sleepy, sombre version the most though.
