Apparently humor is not lost on Okkervil River frontman Will Scheff, since his appearance on the Black Cab Sessions (not to be confused with the Take Away Shows) sees him covering Big Star’s “Big Black Car”. Get it? He’s in a big black car. Singing about a big black car. Zing!

I’m not complaining though. Okkervil is great, Big star is great, and a great-big man-hug between the two is equally as great.

Now, here’s to hoping irony is not lost on this guy, because when his Black Cab turn comes around, he damn well better play this.
