Leeds Wire Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 This is one of my favourite bands of all time, Groundation, covering No Woman No Cry live. I think this is absolutely ace, given how many bands have annihilated this tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds Wire Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Whatever happened to the best cover versions threads? Oh hang on here's one... Here's a few covers by the Cowboy Junkies, who have written more than a few decent tunes of their own over the years: Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen Sweet Jane by Lou Reed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trojan Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Melanie's version of "Ruby Tuesday" is far superior the Stones' version Kirsty's version of "Days" is better than the Kink's version too. “Few thought him even a starter.There were many who thought themselves smarter.

Padge Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Whole Lotta Love, Led Zeppeilin, but who's version of which song is a bit crazy. Its the Willie Dixon song recorded by Muddy Waters and adapted by the Small Faces before Page and Plant attacked it. Certainly a ground breaking rework of a blues classic.

Wolford6 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Edit. Joe Cockers' best cover was WALHFMF. A bit obvious perhaps but true. Nah, it's way overblown. Delta Lady is about Rita Coolidge, written by Leon Russell when he was her bloke. Joe really liked both of them and did the song more than justice.

Steve May Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 and ebtg with the only living boy in new york. What a beautiful voice Tracey Thorn has. Christ, that's dull. The Only Living Boy in New Cross. Now that's a tune. English, Irish, Brit, Yorkshire, European. Citizen of the People's Republic of Yorkshire, the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom and the European Union. Critical of all it. Proud of all it.
