@Burnley123 of Carole King? Really? Ok.

Pfuzylogic · M

@MistyCee
For grins, this was a top 40 version from the early 70s that got me familiar with the original.

@SW-User That video is pretty tripped out but it is a psychedelic song.😁

Best cover band I followed ever followed, doing their version of Cash, no less.

@MistyCee That is a great left-field post. People should listen to that.

MistyCee

@Burnley123 I loved that band. Started following them before they did their own stuff, and they were awesome.

MistyCee

I was in the audience for this one.

@MistyCee I'm too nice to ever be jealous of anyone... :-)

@CountScrofula I'm a big clash fan. Sandinista was their worst album with the best political sentiment. LOL. bastard.

Burnley123 · 41-45, M

@CountScrofula Yeah I know that was Combat Rock but I don't think you really hate me for that.

@thatscottishguy Rod Stewart's was also a cover. THIS is the original!

thatscottishguy · 26-30, M

I know but I've never listened to it.

ArtieKat · M

@thatscottishguy I saw Chris Farlowe live with Van Morrison about 15 years ago. SUPERB!

MistyCee

Last one, and the intro is long, but it's worth it.[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yw-7ihl6t5U]

bijouxbroussard · F

You posted my favorite. But this is a close second. Another of Carole King's songs...

From Rod's new album. He wasn't allowed to play it on Graham Norton because it's an Irish Rebel song. [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxIrmWfKJuQ]

And of course, neither Buddy Holly nor Bo Diddley could do this.
