Every now and then Laura Heaney and I try to get off our butts and actually record something as Dog Is Blue. This time it was a cover of one of our favourite songs, The Replacements’ “Can’t Hardly Wait.”

The cover is a digital drawing based on the original album art for Please To Meet Me. Done in Sketchbook Pro on my Surface, it was then imported into Photoshop for some texture and pattern editing. The goal was to make it fit with the cover art for our Version of JJ Cale’s “Call The Doctor.”
