Greg Roth covers The Kinks “Father Christmas”

As part of The What Have You, the bi-weekly open mic at Evening Star Cafe, Greg covered “Father Christmas” by the Kinks, an irreverent holiday tune about being poor in a decidedly commercialized season.

The arrangement is a very Wilco-ized (or Jeff Tweedy-ish perhaps) version of the more rocking original.

Greg was joined by Todd Pozen on piano, a regular at the open mic and former bandmate of Greg’s in The Mean Ideas.
