My Morning Jacket frontman Jim James released a new solo album, Uniform Distortion, back in June via ATO and in October he released another one, Uniform Clarity, that featured acoustic versions of the songs found on Uniform Distortion. Now he has stopped by Spotify to do a session for them where he covers “What the World Needs Now Is Love,” a 1965 song written by Burt Bacharach (music) and Hal David (lyrics) and first sung by Jackie DeShannon. He was backed by The Resistance Revival Chorus and also performed his own song “Over and Over.” More
