Default Mermaid Ave- specifically Airline to Heaven
In the late 90s Billy Bragg and Wilco took unproduced Woody Guthrie lyrics and added music. Mermaid Ave Vol. 1 & 2 were the result.

It is amazing stuff, if you ask me.

Here is a version of Airline to Heaven that has been eating bandwidth at work as I tap in to get some aural relief.

I love the "jam" at the end, too.

Enjoy.
