If you haven’t heard, last year Chris Knox of the Tall Dwarfs suffered a stroke. Merge Records is putting out a covers compilation to benefit his medical bills. The lineup is incredible (Stephin Merritt, Yo La Tengo, the Mountain Goats, AC Newman, etc), but there’s one song we were all looking forward to hearing: Jeff Mangum’s take on “Sign the Dotted Line.” It’s the first we’ve heard from Jeff in ages and it sounds spectacular.

You can go here to preorder a copy of Stroke and get the MP3s once your order is complete.
