Ghastly sound quality on Jones early digital recording of this song. "Girl At Her Volcano" is the appropriate title for the EP; the sound just couldn't be any hotter. The Stones version is an excellent reading and a nice contrast to Jones marvelous interpretation.
Under the Boardwalk
My favorite cover of "Under the Boardwalk" is Rickie Lee Jones' version from her 'Girl at Her Volcano' LP.
However, I was in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, on business, and I heard another cover of this song on the radio station that was preset in the rental car. It was really quite good (though still not as good, IMHO, as Rickie Lee's). Of course, the radio station did not identify who it was.
So, my questions are these: What is your favorite version of Under the Boardwalk? What is the best recording of Under the Boardwalk (other than Rickie Lee)?
Thanks.
