Back in 2004, Kentucky band My Morning Jacket released two collections of early recordings, demos, covers, and more, "The Sandworm Cometh," and "Learning." At the time, the band had made a name for themselves combining southern rock and Americana with reverb-drenched shoegaze, and these earlier recordings, raw and lo-fi, pushed that sound even further. It really did sound like a bunch of guys recording music in an empty grain silo. Anyway, the albums offered up an interesting assortment of covers, everything from Elton John to Pet Shop Boys to Erykah Badu. Today, we're listening to the band's pretty faithful cover of Berlin's "Take My Breath Away," complete with sound ripped from "Top Gun" and some notes of Harold Faltermeyer's "Memories" at the end. Check it out below, our Daily Jam.
