I blame Wynton, what was the question?

OK, here are three great covers from the greatest musical of all time (if you disagree, you're just wrong):

Hard to stop at three...
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.

Re: Syd Barrett covers not being up to snuff. A Mojo feature on Syd Barrett a few years ago came with a CD of assorted S.B. covers. Among the tracks included were:
Field Music / Terrapin
J Mascis / No Good Trying
Captain Sensible / Octopus
Hawkwind / Long Gone
Robyn Hitchcock / Dark Globe
They were OK, nothing essential; however, the one that really stood out was by Hope Sandoval. Her version of "Golden Hair" lifts it into V.U. terrain and beyond, to the sound of the first summer without grown-ups. For Syd Barrett fans only.
"Dem Glücklichen legt auch der Hahn ein Ei."
Nope. Phil Collins's cover of the same song is even worse, and its badness is emphasized by being on the same album with Aretha Franklin's cover (which is the same album where I got two of the three covers above). As an interesting side note, "A Boy like That" on this album is Selena's last recording ever.
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.
Loved this in 2006...still do in 2016...them's a modern day Shaggs...
"Dem Glücklichen legt auch der Hahn ein Ei."
Not that the original isn't dynamite...
Not Bryan Ferry's version? Or Pete Townshend's?
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.
Bryan Ferry's version was a big disappointment to me. I had always wanted to hear Roxy Music cover "I Put a Spell on You," so I got really excited when Ferry actually did it. But it turned out to be nothing at all like what I had imagined: Ferry stripped it down to little more than a groove, with the old lounge lizard himself just murmuring the title every so often.
