Hahaha. That is a great cover. The original is good too of course, but that is a great cover. I used to sing that one at parties. People loved it.

Anyone can remake a song,
But it takes a real gifted talent to write a song , perform it, and make it a hit!!!

not one song, but a whole album.. Dub Side of the Moon by the Easy All Stars.. tribute to Floyd's Dark side of the moon...
great disk.
Also, Les Claypool's flying Frog Brigades tribute to Floyds 'Animals' is better than the original IMO..

Even Dylan thought that Hendrix nailed "Watchtower".

Thats because Dylan is/was a great peot/songwriter,
but a hack as a performer!!!
Just the opposite,
Frank Sinatra was the most successful performer of the last 100 years, but I don't think he wrote 1 song or played 1 instrument |

Never wrote a hit song or could decide what key to sing in. Old Blue Eyes was a real curiosity. I like his stuff, but what made him a star?

A voice like that is the consummate instrument. Frank ruled in the 40's-60's

I think he's actually a pretty good rythmn guitarist and at times has had great backing bands, most of the key parts of the Band being one of them.
Definitely an unreliable performer though, I've seen both incredible shows as well as boring, incoherent ones... |

I'm reluctant to admit I own Dub side of the moon because every song is lame with th exception of time.Please don't blaspheme Animals that way.Learn about Blue Floyd,you'll be glad you did. |

I like remakes. Sometimes sounds like a different song all together. Couple more off the top of my head:
Dave Mason- All along the Watchtower- My all time favorite rendition
Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush - Purple Haze
English Beat- Tears of a Clown
Roy Buchanan- Hey Joe
Joe Jackson's- San Francisco Fan

I suppose it would count, except that when The Mothers covered "Happy Together", the 2 guys that WERE the Turtles were IN The Mothers Of Invention (Howard Kaylan & Mark Volman; aka Flo & Eddie).
The Turtles went through many different encarnations, but always revolved around Kaylan & Volman. For the record, "Happy Together" was written by Gary Bonner and Alan Gordon, who were in a band in NY called the Magicians. |
