TL;DL Vol. 3 - Coverin' Yr Tracks

Yikes, talk about people with little to no attention span. It's been months since I've posted anything here. Well, such is life. Hopefully this latest offering will make it up to the diehards and any suckers who wandered in here by accident.

Like many people, I've got a soft spot for a good cover tune. Hearing an interpretation of an old favorite can be a great introduction to a new band. Or listening to a band you like pay homage to their influences can get you into bands you may have missed the first time around. Or maybe it's all a lot of karaoke. Whatever it is, I think they're a lot of fun and so I'm sharing with you a small sample of favorites. Some stay pretty true to the original, like Monster Magnet's version of Grand Funk Railroad's "Sin's A Good Man's Brother". Others like "Shaking", a Cows cover of "Shakin' All Over" by Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, take things in a whole new direction. For example, the original does not start with the line, "Girl you know I love it when you make my asshole bleed." Who knew?

I have tons more I wanted to post, but I whittled it down to these six. This will most likely be the first in a series, so if you have any suggestions feel free to speak up in the comments section.
