Music For Our Mother is a whole bunch of alterna-rock artists doing surf songs, surf related songs, earth conscious songs, and completely unrelated songs.
Two decent covers: “Love is All Around” by R.E.M., and Season of the Witch” by Luna. The throwaways are done by Wilco, Ben Lee, Jewel, and Bettie Serveert.
Jewel, All Too Much, Elastica, and Spacehog all pretty much fall short, although Graeme Revell’s “Bells, Books and Candles” has an incense-filled aura.
