The Alt Root Top Ten For November 9, 2022
Picture
A trio of covers make the list for weekly Top Ten for Wednesday November 9, 2022.  Sitting in the #1 spot are The Black Crowes, choosing the cuts for their 1972 cover EP with songs from that year, and on the chart with a Temptations Motown hit, “Papa Was a Rolling Stone”. Live Forever: A Tribute to Billy Joe Shaver has an upcoming (11-11-22) release date and offers Ryan Bingham and Nikki Lane to the list with “Ride Me Down Easy”. Ryan Adams is “Too Bored to Run”, Emily Nenni rails against the system with “Useless”, and Joe Louis Walker carries “The Weight of the World” onto the list with the title track from his upcoming (02/17/23) release. East Nashville’s Golden Shoals have a new double-sided single, on the list with “Treading Water”, Austrian Alps Americana from Prinz Grizzley threatening of “(Payback Day) I’ll Give No Warning”, Cincinnati Ohio’s Buffalo Killers cover sweet Soul music from The Staple Singers shouting “Heavy Makes You Happy (Sha La La Boom Boom Yeah)”, and H.C. McEntire offers “Dovetail” from her upcoming (01-27-23) release Every Acre. Fittingly, The Foreign Landers close out the chart with “The Last Song”, from their upcoming (11-12-22) Travelers Rest on the weekly Top Ten on Wednesday November 9, 2022.
