To celebrate Dr Martens 50th anniversary the brand asked 10 artist to record their version of a cult classic track, all in the spirit of those who have worn DM’s over the years. I myself have a pair, patent pink leather bought in Los Angeles when me and a friend borrowed a car and travelled thru Cali’s shores for a month. Don’t ask me on the whole why-pink-theme question, I think I was more of a colorful spirit back in the days.
Eitherway you can find and download all of the tracks at Dr Martens website, one of the artist is lovely Robert Been from Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, covering The Pogues’ Dirty Old Town.
The music video to Dirty old Town is recorded by Matt Dilmore and shot in Dublin, Ohio.
Go and see some of the other artist such as’ The Raveonettes, The Cinematic Orchestra, Noisettes..
