Loudon Wainwright Sings the Woody Woo Blues...

It's been a big month for Princeton economists: between everyone asking Alan Blinder and Uwe Reinhardt for their take on the economy/health care and an in-depth profile of Paul Krugman in a March issue of the New Yorker, it seems like everyone's got saltwater economics on the brain.Including, apparently, rock-and-folk music legend Loudon Wainwright, father to Rufus and Martha and guitarist extraordinaire.  His latest album, "10 Songs for the New Depression," features "The Krugman Blues," a tribute song to Krugman's left-leaning take on the Recession. Loudon croons:

He also takes a potshot at Old Nassau along the way:

Sometimes when he's on the TV in the background you can spot his school logo.Paul teaches at Princeton U, so Krugman ought to know.
