HossC Posted February 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Last Friday marked the first anniversary of a crime against music. I wouldn't dare inflict the original on y'all, but this version makes me smile: OK, it's really Mike Bauer, but the comments are worth reading. Lots of people sharing experiences of listening to this version in Vietnam or on road trips . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HossC Posted February 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Back to the early '60s now: This guy had a very distinctive vocal style, although the comes close. It's also been covered by artists like (who let his backing singers do the high notes) and whose version is quite bluesy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HossC Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 I can't resist another track from the '80s. This is a live performance from the British show 'Top of the Pops'. Nearly 30 years after it was released, their album 'The Hurting' is still one of my favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Probably one the best cover versions of any song. I think it almost equals the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted March 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Here's some original U2:Bad - U2 (From Live Aid)Capt, I have an EP by another Irish group called 'The Joshua Trio'. Believe it or not they did U2 covers. The EP only has three tracks and the only one I could find on YouTube is (the other two are 'Where The Streets Have No Name' and 'Bad'). I like fun covers - see what you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Sticking with U2 Hoss - pretty original cover of "The Fly". I like originallity like that . It immediately reminded me of band we have here in the USA called Hayseed Dixie. They do a ton of covers bluegrass style. I have a couple of CDs and they are a fun band to listen to. Check out this video from them - . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
