The Louisville native’s Cover Room session features a rendition of “Everyday People,” which appeared on Sly & The Family Stone’s 1969 album Stand! James was backed by the Resistance Revival Chorus on both “Everyday People” and “Over & Over.” The guitarist/vocalist covered “Everyday People” with My Morning Jacket this past New Year’s Eve in Broomfield, Colorado.
