I gotta chime in *Harry Belafonte - Take My Mother Home, Turn Turn, Scarlet Ribbons, Danny Boy, Try To Remember *Linda Ronstadt - Faithless Love, Long Long Time *Eva Cassidy - Fields of Gold *Left Banke - Walk Away, Renee (also Vonda Shepard) *Indigo Girls - Down By The River (live) *Many - Summertime, I think I lke Big Brother & the Holding Company best; but Even Perry Como did a really nice version * Cowboy Junkies - His Song/Her Song *Concrete Blonde - Joey * Isis (the old all girl band) - Rubber Boy * Candy Stanton - He Called Me Baby * Teresa Brewer - Let Me Go, Lover * Bonnie Raitt - I Can't Make You Love Me * Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - Killing The Blues There are so many great recordings listed here I haven't read them all, so please excuse me if I duplicated any. |
Someone earlier had mentioned Alison Krauss' cover of Richard Thompson's Dimming of the Day. I love that version; but I think Bonnie Raitt's version suits me a tad better. https://secondhandsongs.com/performance/8885/versions |
Gotta get me some more Gillian Welch! Here's another, as cosmic as lyrics come. I saw her do it live when she opened for Neil Young on his Greendale tour. What a show! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CywArYObn2U Emmylou Harris - The Pearl This may not be the best version. |
