Speaking of more French butchery, l remember when Billy Idol's Eyes Without A Face came out everyone thought the girl singing the title in French ("Les yeux sans visage") was actually singing "As you...
Oh yes, that is absolutely true. I should have clarified in my subject line that l was talking about their lyrical perspective.
I will throw in a few of my favorites:
Message - From Books And Dreams
Gift - Blue Apple
Neuschwanstein - Battlement
Grobschnitt - Rockpommel's Land, and Solar Music (live)
I remember an ever-so-hip DJ coming in at the end of that in 1980 and saying "Oo, yes she is, isn't she?".
I was 15 and had the lyric sheet, so l wondered what he thought "she" was "so". (That is...
A belated RIP to Bobby Haumer, who released a pretty great album in 1971 as "Zakarrias" (with Peter Robinson on keyboards). He passed on June 25, 2021 at 72.

[QUOTE=polmico;1233137]Danny Carey of Tool.
I was kinda hoping it was Tony Carey :)
His version of Sabbath's War Pigs is not to be missed.
It is also worthwhile to mention that half of Bootcut is Rikard Sjoblom of Beardfish and Big Big Train fame. Some folks ought to be inclined to check them out purely based on that.
A couple others perhaps worthy of mention would be Peter Lloyd, who did the most noteworthy Kansas covers, and definitely James Marsh, whose work for Talk Talk is magnificent, and as tied to the band...
I don't think it is any more complicated than just a "corrective" that occurs in the industry marketplace every few years that seems to be based around what the music consumer perceives as...
