Another winner from NPR's (National Public Radio) This American Life (TAL) show. --- In this episode Jon Langford (The Mekons) uses the classified ads section of the Chicago Reader to assemble a band of musicians who had never met, and to have the band rehearse and cut a song together -- a cover of "Rocket Man" -- all in one day.

This is great kinda funny but long, so if you want to just hear the song go to part two at the end.
