Cover-to-Cover: All week it's Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs

Posted at 1:35 PM on July 28, 2009 by Jim McGuinn

About two years ago Matthew Sweet and the Bangles' Susanna Hoffs teamed up for Under the Covers, a love letter to the rock and roll of their childhoods, growing up in the late '60s. Lovingly crafted covers of artists like Neil Young and the Beatles, plus some of their quirkiest faves, and a good time was had by all.

Now back with Vol 2, the duo moves forward a few years for a loving look at the early '70s. It's a fun listen all the way thru, and this week we'll take double dips into the collection for a flashback in time from two power pop classicists - hear em each weekday this week around 1:30pm.

Here's a clip of them doing "Cinnamon Girl" from the first Under the Covers...
