This Sunday morning, we're remembering Lou Reed on his birthday.

Strawberry Switchblade covered Sunday Morning as a bonus track on the 12" single of Since Yesterday. It's one of the most beautiful things they ever recorded but it's never been reissued.

Here's an odd one - a Japanese ska-punk cover of another J-ska cover of Strawberry Switchblade's Since Yesterday. Potshot did a version in 1997 & this one by Free Kick came out on a Potshot tribute EP in 2014. Limited edition Japanese release on coloured vinyl!

Jimi Hendrix at the Isle of Wight Festival.

I know I've posted this more than once before, but bear with me - his "All Along The Watchtower" is one of those covers that really is better than the original.

New Strawberry Switchblade cover just dropped - Liam Benzvi's new EP Covers has Michael Who Walks By Night as its lead track. We're pretty sure this is the first cover of this song that's ever been released!

Ich habe heute meine erste Radio-Sendung produziert, die nicht für das #Radio war. Quasi #Homebrew, direkt für #Mixcloud. Es ist ein kleiner Testlauf, technisch und vom Klang noch nicht ganz ausgereift. Eine Sendung mit #Cover-Versionen.

Ihr findet sie hier https://www.mixcloud.com/marcrodrigues/offairspace-worry-not-ive-got-you-covered-part-1-30-mai-2024/

Eine detailliertere Playlist verlinke ich Euch in den Kommentaren. Danke für die Aufmerksamkeit.

Pequeña y Fragil is an originally Italian song with a humongous number of Spanish covers. I've put together a playlist of around 50 of them. Yes, I'm strange. But there's a surprising amount of variety in this eclectic and idiosyncratic playlist.

Not only does this cover sound great, but the 1983 MV has its own period charm.

Drinking Stockyard Oatmeal Stout; I picked up a six pack at Trader Joe's for $6.99 and it's surprisingly good.

I just was reminded of this project I did in 2003: "Designers Sing The Beatles“ ... I tried to get all students from my design class to sing Beatles cover versions for me. I did the music and also sang on some tracks. Of course there are mono and stereo versions!
