I have a good title for your disc, how 'bout: Sugar Sugar Substitute...?
|
Where do you come up with this stuff?  The Archie's will be on the next one so maybe I will use it there.

Marty, how many versions of a single song did you put on your's.
|
I just have two versions of each song -- One version by the actual song writer and a "popular" version of each song. The one dilemma I had was which version of The Worst That Could Happen to include besides the Jimmy Webb version. The most popular version of this was done by the Brooklyn Bridge, but was done first, and IMO, better by The Fifth Dimension.
I have just completed this task with a Jimmy Webb, only CD. I took the songs from his great CD Ten Easy Pieces and burned his version of each song with another version. You should hear the difference between JW's version of Galveston and Glen Campbell's version. Jimmy Webb's version turns the song into a haunting ballad. I highly recommend this CD for anyone who is a Jimmy Webb fan.

So you tripled up on the Leo Kottke covers, but you didn't use "World Turning", "Learning the Game", "I Still Miss Someone", or even "Twilight Time"? Interesting...
I'll go out on a limb here and recommend The Wild Colonials to you. Just judging by the artists you've compiled here they might be suited to your tastes. They produced an album of all of their songs performed for music soundtracks called Reel Life, Volume 1, and it contains a nice cover of "It's Not Unusual".

We apologise for the fault in the signature. Those responsible have been sacked.

Brad, I picked those Kottke tunes because, firstly, I like them alot and secondly because the originals were all hits. I'll take a look at the Wild Colonials, merci!

If memory serves me right, Joe Jackson (see my sig) plays piano on that one. JJ has also done some amazing covers, from his entire swinging Jumpin' Jive album to live cuts of "For Your Love," "Memphis," "Mood Indigo," and "Eleanor Rigby." Actually, there's an all-female JJ tribute album in the works...

Andrew, did one song ruin your day?! I like the original 10000 % better, but it was a cover set. BTW, I didn't pull any JJ records for these recordings. I only have 1 or 2. I didn't recall any covers on NIGHT AND DAY right off. My collection is so big that I'm always forgetting about something though!

I just heard for the first time Booker T & The MG's McLemore Avenue, ka-zowie! All the songs from The Insects ABBEY ROAD album dunn'ed in-strum-mentally down thar in Memphis. The song Something is the only free-standing song. The rest are put in one of 3 medleys. This is such an awesome album!  So many albums, so little time....

Dome, I have that one on 7" 45 RPM vinyl. I was gonna use it but couldn't find it. When I moved last year they, the 45's, got out of alfabetical order. I couldn't find POISON IVY by the Stones either. I'll straighten them out some rainey day.
It's not exactly a true cover but it's so good that I was gonna make an exception.
I've taken some suggestions from the posters here and I got McLEMORE AVENUE by Booker T & the MG's & REEL LIFE by the Wild Colonials & King Curtis AT THE FILMORE WEST. Thanks!
I've almost finished the kuntry/kuntry rock disc I threatened....

I'll find that record eventually Dome and then I'll digitize it. It's lost in a big pile for the time being.  I'm digitizing music from my analog stacks when I have time. So many notes and so little thyme...
