This 2000 release was the first time his majesty of the melancholic Mark Kozelek had made a record under his own name as opposed to Red House Painters, and took many Red House Painters devotees rather by surprise by including - alongside three top-drawer songs of Kozelek's own - not one but three AC/DC covers along with one song by John Denver. Yet Kozelek transformed these well-worn rock classics into bleak and captivating glimpses into the darker recesses of the human condition, bringing out every drop of pathos and heartache in their bawdy lyrics as is his wont, and proving himself not only a man possessed of a uniquely affecting voice but a strangely transformative power as a performer. For many, 'Rock 'N' Roll Singer' marked not only the strangest work in his large back catalogue, but one of the finest.
