Peter Jones - Kilkelly (Ireland), it also has an interesting backstory

It's very sad, but indicative of the time.

"Heart of a dancer" by the happy fits could make a fun tenacious d sort of movie

"Hell's comin' with me" by poor man's poison would be a classic revenge western

"Big town banky blaine's rockabilly barbeque" by bear ghost could be an interesting look at class war if you could pull it off

Oh and "A tale they won't believe" by captain tractor for man turning to cannibalism to survive

Holy shit. Never expected to find another person who has heard of Captain Tractor on Lemmy of all places. They have a long history with me and my college years (late nineties, early 2000s)

I prefer the captain tractor version of the last saskatchewan pirate that's how I found the band but the other song came up on it's own through spotify recommendations
