John Darnielle of The Mountain Goats performing "Black Pear Tree" during The Mountain Goats last concert on Ships and Dip V on Thursday February 5th 2009. John Darnielle played a few solo songs in the middle of the set.
The Kaki King version is interesting because her phrasing and melodic style are exactly like Darnielle's. I imagine he had it all plotted out beforehand and she just copied it note for note.
this is from his ep with kaki king of the same name. she sings the majority of the song, but i immediately heard john's writing the first time i heard the song.
