Comment:
Each of these covers offers a vocal or instrumental arrangement decidedly unique from the original. They're not necessarily better than the originals, but none are cheap rehashes. The original artists are in parentheses. This mix was inspired by Hemizen's cover mix.Feedback:
Some great selections here!
That 5-11 run is stellar!
Lovin' every minute of it!
Some great choices here! (Love the Dolby version!)
T'riff'! Don't know that Taj Mahal version of Senor Blues -- would love to hear it.
Cool, I just posted a mix using the Dan Hicks tune.
love the was (not was) version.
A smart selection. I do like to hear musicians put old wine in new bottles & though I don't know most of these covers they're all tunes I'd like to hear reincarnated . . .
