sammynb 3357 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 All this talk of Stan Ridgway, this is what his last album sounded like in 2016. Looks like he's making a decent career with movie soundtracks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 42459 Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 So, I’ve just finished 6 days of 9hr shifts, dropping shite off for angry Regrexit farmers and such, which means I’ve spent a lot of time listening to my music catalogue. It struck me today how many excellent cover versions there are, which are arguably better than the originals. There’s the obvious ones- Joe Cocker, Sinead O’Connor, Jimi Hendrix… …. what about the rest? What’s your favourite cover version? Several that I noted over the past week are… Edit; I’ve added the original, and I’ll change “better than the original” to “equally as good as”, mainly because Karen Carpenter was fucking incredible… also, Jimi… ffs Fire away gents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 42459 Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Loved that album- me and Mrs. Fist had just got together and it was one of our “ listen to with a spliff when we got home in the morning” regulars. Why the fuck did we have kids? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 42459 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Since Steve Bronski died today, this counts as a cover, doesn’t it? ( And it’s arguably better than the original) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
