MP3 Tallest Man in Graceland

If only I could give you a proper review of Tuesday's Tallest Man on Earth concert. Alas, I was to busy being reborn.
Added to the Swede's stunning set—wich towered above past Portland performances—was a loving, tongue-in-cheek ode to tour mates Nurses, and a cover of Paul Simon's "Graceland" that's biting heft, to me, far exceeds the original. We found a copy of the Tallest Man performing the tune in the studio with a banjo (at the show he used guitar). Enjoy:
