PREMIERE: Albuquerque can inspire some existential thoughts -- but if you take those and combine them with Stax Records, you've got Jimmy Deveney and the Hold Fast Union's new song "Handprints"

📷 #ElvisCostello re-made "I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down" (1980), #SamAndDave's BlueSoul classic for #StaxRecords (1967).
It was the B-side to "Girls Talk, and the songs sit perfectly side-by-side.
