Hi all, happy holidays! Saw dozens of abandoned cars in Flatbush Brooklyn on the way to the only working train 20 blocks from home this afternoon. Fun! @Mark, I want to shop in that grocery.... | |

Slits' version of "Heard it Through the Grapevine" . . . Teena Marie's version of Rose Royce's "Wishing on a Star" . . . latter not all that different from original -- just thinking of all those we lost this year :( | |

Loving the show! Cover suggestion: Songs from a Random House's version of Donna Summer's 'I Feel Love.' SoFARH recreates the all-electronic track with ukuleles, chord organ, viola, contrabass, and a drum. It's on their 2nd album, 'gListen.' | |

Other Cover suggestion: If you Go Away by Julie Christmas. I think that the original song is from france. | |

Oh radical departures from originals, i see hmmm | |
|

dave:
The hoof-n-mouth almost seems like cheating, but it's chock full of transformative covers. hotrod's gutting cover of "over" or belinda's berserk "institutionalized", frex. | |
|
Mon. 12/27/10 10:06pm
dave:
oh, and of course there's the entire Langley Schools Music Project album. | |

If you want to really see a pack of wusses. come on down here to So. Florid-duh. It was in the 60s today and people were sreaming at me "where's your sweatshirt? Don't you have a coat? Aren't you cold?" Yeesh...can you guys send some of that snow down here? I want to see the disaster that'd cause. -s | |

not to mention Leonard Nimoy's *stellar* rendition of "Proud Mary," Telly Sevalis' (sp.?) *poignant* version of "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling," William Shatner's *epic* take on "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," etc. etc. etc. -- all that "Atrocious/Incorrect Music" stuff (BIG UPS to Irwin, for being such a "good" influence) | |

Steve:
...and before I forget, great set Dan! Love this version of "Jump." -s | |

Anything off Outlandos D' Americas (esp 5. La Cama Es Muy Grande Sin Ti (This Bed's Too Big Without You)) or Every Band has a Shoenen Knife that Loves Them | |

Wasnt american woman originally dine by the canadians the guess who? | |

Rick:
The original 7" of I Feel Love wasmy first record I bought as a kid! | |
|
Mon. 12/27/10 10:47pm
dave:
gunther's right. this version of "i feel love" completely rewlz. | |
|
Mon. 12/27/10 10:50pm
Canada Calling:
Yes, the Guess Who were claimed by the Canadians at the time that American Woman hit the charts. At least, that's my take. However, I'm an American sleeper agent, passing as a Canadian, so I'm inherently untrustworthy. (Icht bin ein New Englander.) | |

Dan B:
Hey all, sorry abt checking in so little -- hectic night, but a total blast. Thanks for the correction re: the Guess Who -- duh me! Lots of great suggestions, trying to get to a few of them. Maybe we need to do this again -- I've got a stack here I'll never get near half-way through! Keep 'em coming.... | |

Gunther:
Dan, thanks for playing the "I Feel Love" cover. This Vanilla Fudge version of "Some Velvet Morning" is the HEAVIEST ever, man. | |
|
Mon. 12/27/10 11:09pm
Rick:
Captain Beefheart did almost no covers, but I'm fond of his version of J.J. Cale's Same Old Blues. It's not considered a career high-point for Beefheart, but I'm throwing it out there anyway. | |

Norman Bloom:
Nice to be able to hear underground radio at its best.I live up here in Toronto.We have alot of radio stations but they really don't play anything like what you are playing. Even our college stations don't have this kind of programming like yours. I have listened to your station before..... | |

Canada Calling:
Hi Dan - "Truckin'" by the Pop-O-Pies comes to my song-plugging mind, but I'm not sure it's in the same league as these fantastic #1 hits! | |

This is a great set! I keep thinking of "Dancing UIn The Streets" by Fred Frith | |
|
Mon. 12/27/10 11:28pm
dave:
woody's version of "smells like teen spirit" really stretches the idea of a cover in an interesting way, since it's a filtered version of the original recording. i was actually wondering earlier if the slowed-down justin bieber song qualify as a cover. | |
|
Mon. 12/27/10 11:31pm
Dan B:
@Dave - yeah, I think the Beiber version *does* count as a cover, as do a lot of the DJ remix versions that manipulate originals, or the mash-ups that mix them with other tunes, etc. Woody's little 7" is a great realization of a certain way of reconfiguring the media world that permeates our lives into something new by twisting it around on itself...certainly can be done without a live band! | |

Dan B:
@Norman Bloom, thanks for checking in Norman -- hey, I came of age listening to Brave New Waves and David Wisdom's Night Waves program on CBC out of Montreal -- which reached me in my little Northern NY village where we couldn't get other connections to the outside world of outside music back before the internet... | |

dave:
That view of covers -- as appropriation and reconfiguration -- makes this show a very nice followup to DJ Rupture's discussion with Marcus Boon. | |
