While I grew up with the Byrds version, I’m going with Dylan on this danceoff. Somebody wake those dudes up, they’re sleepwalking though this song though the soundbite at the end of the video detailing the slapdown by David Crosby on the Ed Sullivan show perks them up just a tad. Wha? […]
One is bluesy, one is rock. One has freakish arm movements, one is playing in elevators all over the world (sigh).
Who’s version of She Came in Through the Bathroom Window do you prefer? I love ya, Paul, but this one belongs to Cocker. Then again…

I love the Dead as much as the next hippie chick and wasn’t looking for a replacement for our boy, Jerry. However, Dark Star Orchestra just lit up (no jokes please) my iPod with some awesome covers. A tribute band that can give the old days a run for their money? Pshaww…but when you need […]
Lenny Kravitz puts me in quite a pickle. He has got to be the love child of Jimi Hendrix and that chick from the Jeffersons and while my hippie instincts tell me to stay far away — he’s too damn hot not to sneak a peek. You’ve seen my affinity for good covers, […]
To be honest I can’t find my favorite goodbye-minded Joni song. Which of course, is a song, I’d love to share. So, how about I post the lyrics to the Joni song and play some Ministry? Sound good?
See You Sometime - this tune from Mitchell’s album For the Roses is one of my favorites. […]
I love covers. I love the original even more but sometimes a slight tweak can make a big difference to a great song or transform a mediocre song into one you can’t get out of your head (in a good way). One of my favorite songs is Blackbird by the Beatles. This […]
Since September I’ve been avoiding Herbie Hancock’s River: The Joni Letters. If you read this blog ever or know me personally you know that I don’t do Joni Mitchell covers. I just plain don’t. I’ve never liked one. Recently, someone sent me a link to a video of Court & Spark from this album and […]
This celebration of music, taking place November 7th at the Beacon Theater is in honor of both Bob Dylan and Todd Haynes’ creation/movie event I’m Not There.
The film opens on the 21st of November but the music is starting early on the 7th when 16 various artists will come together in true style of the […]
You may have heard about Collins release in June of this year, Judy Collins Sings Lennon & McCartney. Collins released the album on her personal label Wildflower Records and has been touring as of late to promote it. On the album Collins covers such tunes as:
And I Love Her, We Can Work It Out, […]
Not me. As we’ve established I have zip musical talent. But if you do it’s almost a sure bet that you have, at one point, dabbled in a Beatles cover. Why, because it’s cool to cover a band you love. I myself have had many a good time listening to my more music inspired friends […]
