This cover of Tommy James and the Shondells is in no way an improvement, but it was a big hit for Tiffany. If anyone remembers her...

Joan Jett covered another Tommy James song. Her version of Crimson and Clover is pretty good.

Here's another one by Miley. Covering "Sweet Jane" by the Velvet Underground (Lou Reed). Cowboy Junkies did a cover also, but I like Miley's.

Thanks.. I love them.. lots more on YouTube

Ziggy Marley and John Popper/Blues Traveler cover Bob Marley's "No Woman, No Cry". Song writing credit was given to a Vincent Ford who ran a soup kitchen. It's believed Bob did write it, but basically gave the the song royalties to run the soup kitchen.

 

[Frodo]

Eric Reed's jazz cover of Chopin Prelude in E Minor

 

[meyers7]

Another Velvet Underground cover. This time The Black Crowes cover "Sweet Nuthin'". Chris lets Rich sing on this one. Good choice. My Morning Jacket does a nice cover also. (actually quite a few covers of this out there)

 

[McFly]

 

[meyers7]

Post Modern Jukebox does some great covers, change-ups. This is Guns-n-Roses "Sweet Child O' Mine". With Ms Miche Braden doing the honors.

 

[MSGRET]

Dolly Parton's goddaughter's version of Jolene.

 

[meyers7]

Ok, definitely not a classic song, though in parts of the world kinda popular a while back. Was/is a US band, Scissor Sister and their song "Take Your Mama Out Tonight". This is covered by a Danish blues showband, Thorbjorn Risager & The Black Tornado.
Anyway, I like them and they have some good blues tunes of their own out there.
