It was a one-time treat at the Santa Barbara show, but Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood and Thom Yorke played a very nice cover of Neil Young's "Tell Me Why" (one of my fav of Neil's songs).

Here is...

I thought I'd throw out some video of Bill Frisell since I suspect very few of you are familiar with his work. I know SJ knows some thanks to a friend ;) I thought it'd be nice to show you who and...

Right on Feev!:thumbsup:

I was going to suggest we add Kid Rock shouldn't be allowed to "live" but I suppose that's going a wee bit too far.

Link Wray's cover of the Beatles' "Please Please Me" is outstanding.

You haven't heard this song until you've heard it arranged as a surf-rock instrumental with Link's super-nasty guitar tone....

I don't feel as strongly about it as I do something like Rod Stewart's pathetic attempts to cover Tom Waits ("Downtown Train" and "Tom Traubert's Blues") but I didn't love it.

Want to take a guess which category I fall into? :P

As a big fan of both the Ramones and Tom Waits I'd be remiss not to include the following on my list of good covers...

The Return of Jackie & Judy - Tom Waits (originally by the Ramones)
Danny...

Definitely. He's covered so many songs in his career that he knows a good cover when he hears one.



I like Korn, but this cover was horrible. Another Pink Floyd cover that really gets on my...

Even Dylan agrees on that one. He's said many times that Jimi's is the quintessential version of that song.

That's pretty much it exactly. I think they tried to make it sound a bit too "Cakey" for lack of a better word, by using a lot of the sounds they use on many of their own songs. It just came off a...

They do so few covers that I wanted to give them credit for this one because I think they do such a nice job with it. Their version of "Strangers In the Night" I'm not particularly fond of.

Hi Heather. To my knowledge, no she hasn't. If she has than my wife has yet to come across it anywhere because she's as big a RH fan as I am and she'd surely have played it for me. There are...

I wish I could have seen them at that point too, but as I was only 3 when Duane died, this obviously could not have happened. I did see them MANY times in the early-mid 1990's (I lost count after 30...

He certainly did.

Good: "Don't Do It" - The Band (originally "Baby Don't You Do It" by Marvin Gaye)

Bad: "Baby Don't You Do It' - The Who (same original as above)

The original is a great song (duh, it's Marvin...

Looking for a good Beatles' cover?

Try Wilson Pickett's version of "Hey Jude".

Not only does the song feature the amazing soulful vocals of Mr. Pickett, but it features an absolutely stunning...

I do too Feev. I like the original better (it's one of the Stones' best songs) but I do like the Priest version a lot.

I'm with you there with a couple of exceptions... they do pretty good versions of the Ramones' "I Believe In Miracles" and the MC5's "Kick Out the Jams." Other than that, I prefer when they stick to...

I have mixed feelings about that one. Musically I think he does a good job with it. It just seems a bit odd contextually. Lyrically the song is about the five years John took off from the music...
