Truth/Kaze no Mukou e RE covers

nobody@vox.com(ArashiNino) — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 12:58:33 +0000

The Regular Edition is really just a big contrast to the Limited Edition covers...very much cut and dry with no high gloss materials. Unless you want the 3rd song on single (Smile) then I would recommend to get at least one of the LE versions wit...

OK, I love cover songs...

OK, I love cover songs ( WIKI ) That said, I like to go to websites and download various cover songs - often these sites offer 'albums' of songs with specific themes. Here are 2 CD Covers (i-pod artwork) for 2 such albums. RADIOHEAD COVERS: T...

Sounds Like: Stereophonics cover Chris Farlowe

nobody@vox.com(Dave) — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 21:40:49 +0000

Yeah...I don't know who Mr. Farlowe is either...or maybe you do? Not sure I've heard his version. Not even sure I've heard the Rod Stewart version...maybe I just know the tune from TV? A version of this was also used for the opening of the origin...

The Planet Doesn't Mind

nobody@vox.com(Burl Veneer) — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 11:23:52 +0000

The term "blast from the past" is overused, but on some occasions it fits exactly: when your attention is drawn to something and you realize, wow, I used to like that long ago, and I forgot all about it, but here it is again years later and isn't ...

Luxuriously lacerating locomotion (continued)

nobody@vox.com(Burl Veneer) — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 02:12:07 +0000

Having finally followed up on Platters That Matter Records's post of Dr. John's "I Walk On Gilded Splinters" with The Flowerpot Men's cover version, PTMR tells me that Humble Pie did a version of it too. Sure enough, there it is on YouTube, from ...

The Flowerpot Men meet Dr. John

nobody@vox.com(Burl Veneer) — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 23:04:02 +0000

Continuing the perusal of my own vinyl vault, I turned up my Flowerpot Men collection: not the 60s psychedelic band, but the vaguely gothic 80s synthbeat duo of Ben Watkins and Adam Peters. Watkins started out as the singer for new wave band The ...

Sheena is a Punk Rocker

nobody@vox.com(Shabby) — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 16:09:50 +0000

One of my favorites songs from the album Bossa N' Ramones: Well the kids are all hopped up and ready to go They're ready to go now They've got their surfboards And they're going to the discotheque a go go But she just couldn't stay She had...

But do you know what it means?

nobody@vox.com(Groove Neuter) — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 15:55:24 +0000

It's always a tricky course to navigate when a performer sets out to cover a song written and performed (usually made famous) by another artist. A good cover version requires that the artist performing it puts their own stamp on the work without ...

The next YouTube hit?

nobody@vox.com(kazumano) — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 15:17:40 +0000

Haven't really heard much bout this girl Kira Grannis, though apparently she's secured a deal with Interscope since early 2008. Lovely voice, check her out. Not sure if I can label her as a YouTube phenom but whatever. I'm impressed. Very nice Ha...

Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us

nobody@vox.com(eliz. s.) — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 14:54:36 +0000

I heart Sam Phillips. Her original on the top right (about 48 seconds in): And a slower, more ponderous version by Alison Krauss and Robert Plant which I love just as much below. I had to look up Sister Rosetta because I'd never heard of her....

Obscure covers: the Phenomenauts

nobody@vox.com(Burl Veneer) — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 01:55:20 +0000

Casting about for new music to listen to I came across the Phenomenauts, and the description sounded all right (something like "pop-punk with some synths"), and sure enough, they're pretty fun (and unlike so many pop-punk bands, they don't sound l...
