There’s Nothing So Sacred We Won’t Buy
Glen Phillips performs “Rise Up”
“Rise Up” is Glen Phillips song that was recorded for the Works Progress Administration album WPA. If I had to guess, this song has been floating around in one form or another for years prior to it being put to tape (or to 0s and 1s as is most often the case these days). I wish I had at least a few details on this particular performance, but suffice it to say, it appears to have been recorded in a television studio someplace. And as with most of Glen’s tunes, I much prefer this simple, stripped-down version with just him and a guitar over the more produced album version.
Enjoy!
