With a new album, “Wasting Light” due on April 12, it appears that one record from the Foo Fighters in April just won’t cut it in 2011.
NME reports that, as a part of Record Store Day 2011, the Foos are releasing a covers album, “Medium Rare,” on vinyl in stores participating in the April 16 event.
Fans will get covers of songs the Foos have played through the years - including stuff from Pink Floyd, Paul McCartney and Wings, and Prince – as well as classics by Thin Lizzy, Gerry Rafferty and Cream, among others.
