Yo La Tengo is a strange group. They’ve been around since the 80s and despite not exhibiting much in the way of musical genius they’re incredibly endearing. It’s probably down to their cultured outlook and hard-working attitude. The trio have always found it easier digesting influences (the likes of The Byrds and The Velvet Underground) than being influential themselves. Their discography is full of covers. In fact, it’s when they’re drawing from others that Yo La Tengo do it best. Sleepless is another record with five covers and one original track. These songs were released in a limited edition in 2019 for the Japanese artist Yoshitomo Nara's exhibition. The covers range from the Delmore Brothers (a 1950s bluegrass band) to The Byrds, Dylan, Ronnie Lane and The Flying Machine. Sometimes covered in a noisy rock version (a clear Velvet Underground influence) Yo La Tengo reveal their bucolic side here with acoustic guitars, vocal harmonies and relaxed country atmospheres (a Byrds influence). It’s nothing new or essential, but it’s as soft and comfortable as that old chequered shirt you’ve had since 1992 and wear once a year. © Stéphane Deschamps/Qobuz
