Pony Music Library 18: "Cutie Mark Crusaders Go Crusading - Blues Arrangement"

A very nice surprise yesterday: the official Hasbro Studios Shorts YouTube channel added all ten of the tracks from the new Pinkie Pie's Party Playlist album – although for some reason, one of them ("In Our Town") is left off the playlist that HSS also added. Anyway, since there may be less time for this sort of thing once the hiatus ends at the end of the month, I'd better get another PML entry up!

What? "Cutie Mark Crusaders Go Crusading - Blues Arrangement"

Who? Octavia

Which? Cover version

When? May 2012

Why? Blues is not exactly the most common musical style in the My Little Pony fandom, and that makes the good tracks that do appear that much more valuable. Octavia's take on William Anderson's instrumental from "The Show Stoppers" is an absolutely brilliant one, too. I strongly suspect that Apple Bloom had a hoof in the production, too, since it just has so much sass!
