TubeLover Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 On 8/28/2018 at 4:31 PM, One and a half said: I've heard quite a few 'Autumn Leaves', none but one brings the correct emotion to the song as this one. Eva, we really miss you. Youtube this song Agreed. She absolutely blew me away on this (and a number of other) covers. Her version of Sting's "Fields Of Gold", also mentioned earlier, was also the definitive one. Some years back, Sting was appearing locally here and being interviewed on the radio. A friend of mine heard the interview as it happened. The interviewer asked if he would be performing "Fields Of Gold" as it was her favorite of his songs. Sting said something to the effect of "possibly, but having heard Eva Cassidy's remake of it, mine sometimes seems a bit inadequate". JC Link to comment

Popular Post christopher3393 Posted September 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2018 The discreet charm of "( I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" covers. I sampled over 50. Far from comprehensive. Small short list that doesn't include either Britney Spears or Cher's covers: for impromptu verve: for historical significance as musical event: And finally (envelope please): "The Residents' 1976 version of The Stones' 'Satisfaction' is nearly everything the better-known version by Devo from a year later is not: loose, belligerent, violent and truly fucked-up. A real stick in the eye to everything conventionally tasteful in bicentennial America. Delightfully painful to listen to thanks to Philip Snakefinger Lithman's completely unhinged lead guitar and mystery Resident member's menacing vocal, this is a timeless piece of plastic."

I agree The Residents' version is "truly f....d up" but I'd say Devo's version is pretty f....d up in it's own way. Both great versions. Also enjoyed the Bjork/PJ Harvey version. First time seeing that. Thanks christopher3393 1 Link to comment

Thanks I like Benny Benassi's 'Satisfaction' which isn't quite a cover version as I think it only borrows about one word from the original.

Bruce-Baker-Moore from Around the Next Dream (1994 album) · Nomeansno from Mr. Right & Mr. Wrong: One Down & Two to Go (1994 album) · Blackfoot from After the Reign (1994 album) · Sweet Honey In The Rock from Selections 1976-1988 (1997 album) · Bill Frisell from The Willies (2002 album) · Jack White from Cold Mountain (2003 soundtrack album) · The Radiators from Earth vs. The Radiators: the First 25 (2004 album) · Harry Manx from West Eats Meet (2004 album) · James Blood Ulmer from Birthright (2005 album) · Richard Shindell from South of Delia (2007 album) · B.B.

I think it still remains true to the spirit of the song: DuckToller and rando 1 1 Link to comment

rando Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 That was a considerable amount of work putting that post together @christopher3393. It's especially rewarding seeing your interest grow from that which would normally pass without auguring further discussion. Among the recognized stars of that time period it was very common to play hits others had written and made popular while still new to the public's ears. This certainly wasn't planned. Something tells me a few of you might be right in line with my album of evening I sat out beforehand that will be posted tomorrow. Link to comment
