I went looking for the title song to make a segue here of Run Engine Run, and Run Dusty Run (Long Ryders) and Run Christian Run (Super Furry Animals) but the Trapper Schoepp song isn't a single, really, so that was a bust but I went to the record label's YouTube from there and listened to this one and liked it:
I've been hearing this on KCRW-FM the last couple of weeks now. And I really like it... my kind of music! He's from the group Real Estate... which I really like too! Unfortunately Bill and Rebecca don't like them. But here's "Northern Highway" by Martin Courtney...
I love Real Estate! Great song too, that guitar is like real butter on home made bread!

He’s also released numerous solo albums under the name Portastatic, a move that gave him another outlet as a prolific singer-songwriter while keeping his name off the marquee..."

Heard a song on Wyoming Public Radio by Conor Oberst. Hundreds of WaysPretty good stuff, Bill should add it.
And speaking of difficult-to-love voices, Okkervil River put out an album last year that sounds a lot more promising than that one a few years ago that was such a ghastly downer that no one dared listen more than once.
Great song too, that guitar is like real butter on home made bread!
