Green Day‘s Billie Joe Armstrong has covered Jesse Malin‘s ‘Black Haired Girl’ for the latter’s upcoming tribute/benefit album.Armstrong’s cover of Malin’s 2007 track is the latest to be released from ‘Silver Patron Saints: The Songs of Jesse Malin’, a tribute and benefit LP for Malin, who suffered a rare spinal stroke last year that left him paralyzed from the waist down.“Jesse is a dear friend to me,” Armstrong said in a statement. “I love his songwriting.
He is all heart…His passion is endless. We send each other YouTube videos (mostly old Ramones clips and New York Dolls). Every time I’m in New York he goes out of his way to make me, my friends and my family feel at home.
He’s always down for a laugh or a shoulder to cry on. Jesse, we love you and we’d do anything for you.”Speaking about the cover in a statement, Malin said: “When I heard Billie Joe was doing Black Haired Girl, I was so blown away.
He took it to another level, a lot of attitude, a lot of power, a lot of style, like everything that he does.”‘Silver Patron Saints: The Songs of Jesse Malin’ is set for release on September 20 and is available for pre-order here.
