Let's talk about The Old Black Hen, sung by country singer Lawrence Peters. The album version includes and incredibly deep and powerful vocal performance with trembling slide guitars, honky tonk pianos and ghostly feminine backing vocals.
The demo version is just Molina and his electric guitar. His version is much more personal, as we can hear Molina's signature shaky voice speaking of "the bad luck lullabies"
"All of my pain found a partner in that room And the devil's tail swayed with the tune"

Magnolia Electric Co. - "The Dark Don't Hide It (Live)" From the album Trials and Errors (January 18, 2005)
Last song scrobbled from iTunes at Last.fm
For some reason, this cover reminds me of the one to Free's Heartbreaker

As much as I adore Songs:Ohia, I have to admit that I also love the Americana twang of Magnolia Electric Co. It's slowly become my favourite Molina project.

Let's talk about: Farewell Transmission
During a phone interview with Justin Taylor for The Faster Times, Molina describes ‘Farewell Transmission’ as perhaps “one of the most heroic recording moments of all time” for how the arrangement came together with originally unscheduled musicians, live and improvised.
In his own words: “We put, I think, about 12 people in a room and recorded that song live, completely live, and unrehearsed. I showed ‘em the chord progression, they had no idea when it would end, and we just cut it. Steve [Albini] did a beautiful job. I noticed that at one point when it was a little too loud or a little too soft he came and opened a door to make it work, because it was just an ambient recording. When you hear that song kick off everybody knows it, and what’s so disturbing to me is the way that I ended it is I was dictating to the band and Steve—I go “Listen. Listen. Listen.” And then at one point they all stop. It’s great.”
