He Called Me Baby, all due respect to Patsy Cline; but I think Candy Staton owns that one now, especially since One eskim0 paid her tribute in their Kandi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_tBHoRaxns

The Four Tops: "Just Walk Away Renee" (original by The Left Banke). Unusual for me to like equally two completely different interpretations of a song (in this case a great one), but, hey, it’s The Four Tops! The Band: "Long Black Veil" (original by Lefty Frizzell). What other Rock ’n’ Roll band could possibly do this song?! The Band: "I Shall Be Released" (original sung by Bob Dylan and played by The Hawks in The Basement Tapes). The Band’s version benefits greatly from pianist Richard Manuel’s falsetto vocal, which Eric Clapton has described as heartbreaking. It truly is. The Yardbirds: "Train Kept A-Rollin’’’ (original by Tiny Bradshaw in 1951, but The Yardbirds copped it from 50’s Rockabillies The Rock ’n’ Roll Trio, whom Jeff Beck idolized). Lucinda Williams: This Sweet Old World (Lucinda’s 2017 re-recording of her 1992 Sweet Old World album). Muchas betta, imo. |
@bdp24 , Have you heard Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes' version? Homage to the Four Tops with an injection of Jersey Juice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hG6iNPyE4Ck No. that is not Adam Sandler on lead guitar. ;^) |
