The National and the folks behind the Dark Was The Night compilation have released another free mp3 from the excellent charity set. “So Far Around The Bend” is a jaunty little pop song that would probably feel out of place on either Alligator or Boxer, but sounds like a completely natural and welcome experiment for the band nonetheless. If I had the choice, I’d love to be able to share the beautiful Antony Hegarty & Bryce Dessner cover of Bob Dylan’s “I Was Young When I Left Home” (my personal favorite), but this track is one of the set’s strongest. Proceeds of the 4AD released 2-disc/triple vinyl/download will go to the Red Hot Organization, an international charity dedicated to raising funds and awareness for HIV and AIDS.
