Fun Stuff > BAND
Are there any >good< covers of Kansas, Simon and Garfunkle, and Jethro Tull?
FireStarter:
I really don't know. I do know I do know I've found some covers I like, rarely better than the original. However, I do enjoy listening to some covers, if they are done respectfully of the original intent of the song. I was just wondering if any of you had come across any bands who do covers of some of the better older artists.
Cartilage Head:
Johnny Cash did a good version of "Bridge Over Troubled Water".
Also, Porcupine Tree should cover "Bright Eyes".
Narr:
Covers that are better than the originals:
Red Hot Chili Peppers cover of "Higher Ground"
Lenny Kravitz cover of "American Woman"
Those are just about the only two I can think of off the top of my head that I like better than the original versions of said songs.
supersheep:
The Primus cover of the Charlie Matthews Band's "The Devil Went Down To Georgia", mainly because I am a huge fan of Claymation videos. (There is SFA difference between the two versions, as far as I recall...)

Those are fucking awful covers, so I'm going to assume you're joking.
