Cover Songs Featuring Highly Skilled Musicians

[HeelInTheOzarks]

Just about anything by Boyce Avenue. It's all covers.

Yeah they are really really good.

Loved this one in particular

Nothing like a Bob Wills tune to start your day.

Bob Wills IS still the king

I figure Santana covering Fleetwood Mac's Black Magic Woman or Hendrix covering Dylan isn't what this is about. How about someone covering Hendrix?

Always a good time when Billy played the Cradle.

 

[grimes70]

A Smothers Brothers song believe it or not.

 

[HeelInTheOzarks]

This is a banger

Ugly Kid Joe is a truly forgotten gem of the early 90s

Shared merely for humor



What if Black Sabbath wrote “Never Gonna Give You Up”?

 

[altoheel]

The Guster talk on the other music thread made me think of this cover they did on their live album. It's hard to cover the Talking Heads and not have people just wish they were listening to the Talking Heads instead but I always really liked this one.

 

[HeelInTheOzarks]

Love cross-genre covers, and this one is crazy.

The banjo guy playing the guitar solo lol

 

[nycfan]

Beck -> Sound and Vision

 

[nycfan]

Gillian Welch (& David Rawlings) -> Black Star

 

[nycfan]

Ben Harper -> Strawberry Fields

 

[nycfan]

Fiona Apple -> Across the universe

 

[nycfan]

The Waybacks (featuring John Cowan) -> Kashmir



I was at this performance, so a particular all-time favorite of mine. You gotta listen to the end to really appreciate it.

 

[finesse]

Not sure I like this as much as the original but there damn sure is some talent performing.
