Monday Afternoon Music Break

.
I was too slow on the uptake to catch my current musical obsession Grizzly Bear here in NYC last week - SIGH - and now they've moved on to other pastures (and the same damned fate has struck me this week with Phoenix's two sold-out shows - I am a loser! Ugh!).

Anyway, last night in Toronto their friend Feist joined them on stage for "Service Bell" and if you haven't heard them perform this song together - it's on the charity album Dark Was The Night - you are missing something really really really special. It's one of those songs that are only a couple of minutes long so you want to listen to it about ten times directly in a row to achieve total bliss. Or at least that's what I do.

Anyway, someone caught last night's Toronto performance for YouTube; I haven't listened to it yet so I can't tell you how good the sound quality is but judging from other live recordings of Grizzly Bear that I've heard they always sound terrific live... if only I could see them! Ack.
