Like all of the shows on the “It’s Time” tour, Wilco's concert in Boston, MA, last night stood out for a very special reason. Tweedy and company including Sleater-Kinney's Corin Tucker broke out a cover of The Rolling Stones classic “Honky Tonk Women” in tribute to Stones drummer Charlie Watts who passed away early that day at the age of 80.
The Stones music is certainly part of Wilco's DNA as they've previously covered “Dead Flowers,” and have several songs, particularly on their first few albums, A.M. and Being There, that owe greatly to the tunes of England’s Oldest Hitmakers.
Check out Wilco's rendition of “Honky Tonk Women”:
“A Shot in the Arm”
“Random Name Generator”
“At Least That’s What You Said”
“Love Is Everywhere (Beware)”
“I Am Trying to Break Your Heart”
“Art of Almost”
“If I Ever Was a Child”
“Impossible Germany”
“Hummingbird”
“Box Full of Letters”
“Everyone Hides”
“Born Alone”
“Jesus, Etc.”
“Theologians”
“I’m the Man Who Loves You”
“Heavy Metal Drummer”
“I’m Always in Love”
“Honky Tonk Women”
“The Late Greats”
“California Stars”
Next up: Thompson’s Point, Portland, ME 8/25/21 & later this week, Wilco’s show at Millennium Park Pritzker Pavilion, Chicago on 8/28 will be live streamed on nugs.net.
