The National's latest effort, Boxer, another 'grower' by the way, which is how I tagged Alligator in my review back in 2005, is finally, officially, in stores... and all over the internet (a good chunk of the album has been posted on blogs in the past two days) if you go looking here. But here at Sixeyes we're going to give you the band live, or to put it another way... FANTASTIC. This is one amazing outfit to see perform in front of you, you owe it to yourself and future generations (ok, that's a little over the top) to see this band of musicians.
These are mp3s from two separate Black Sessions (which are live radio performances) that the band did in France over the past four years.
Links have passed on...RIP.
