Best and Worst Covers

[Thomas R.]

Here's a cover I like and one I find weird/annoying with the twist that both covers are by the same artist.

Good, IMO


YouTube - Tori Amos - A Case of you (Joni Mitchell cover)

Weird, IMO


YouTube - Tori Amos - Happiness is a Warm Gun (The Beatles)

[Midnight Rambler]

BEST! Thin Lizzy, Bob Seger, Lynyrd Skynyrd. These are just three influences. Now you know why they are so good!

YouTube - Metallica - Whiskey in the jar

YouTube - Metallica - Turn The Page

YouTube - Metallica - Tuesday's Gone (Audio Only)

[WhistlerMCMLV]

Best:

John Mayall's Blues Breakers, "Parchman Farm"

Worst:

Cactus, "Parchman Farm"



Best:

The Beatles, "Please Mr. Postman"

Worst:

Carpenters, "Please Mr. Postman"

Best cover medley:

David Johansen, "We Gotta Get Out of This Place/Don't Bring Me Down/It's My Life"

[Midnight Rambler]

I nominate this one as the best amateur (no name) cover I think I have ever heard. This guy was just screwing around and sounds better than the lack luster qualities currently available on YouTube of the original. As a matter of fact, I just posted one. It clips and cuts out. This one sounds better!

YouTube - Treat Her Like A Lady - a Cornelius Brothers and Sister Rose tribute cover
