Owen - Near and Far

A Split EP with The Rutabega, here are the three songs by Owen including Mike Kinsella's solo version of the American Football track "Never Meant" - possibly the greatest song ever written. There's some good YouTube footage of him being unable to play the song at a gig somewhere. Bless. His new album "Ghost Town" is just out and it's as beautiful and heartfelt as ever. Either he's had more devastating break-ups than anyone else known to man or an unnatural amount of empathy towards those that have. He should come and play in the UK more often.

The One With The Protocols
