Sounds Eclectic: The Covers Project
2007 compilation album by Various artists / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sounds Eclectic: The Covers Project is a compilation album consisting of cover songs performed by a variety of artists on KCRW.[2] The recordings come from "Sounds Eclectic", a weekly syndicated public radio program hosted by Nic Harcourt that plays a variety of music, taken from the archives of the daily KCRW program Morning Becomes Eclectic. One exception is The Flaming Lips' performance of Radiohead's "Knives Out", which was recorded in their tour bus on the way to the studio.[3] The album was sold exclusively at select Starbucks locations (Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, San Diego, Austin, Boston, and Washington, D.C.) starting March 13, 2007.[4][5] A portion of sales helped the station's effort to digitize its music library.[4]
