Eddie Vedder doing "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" Todd Rundgren doing "Rain" is good too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiny norman 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2003 I'd just like to add two instrumentals which make my list. They were both on a Beatles tribute album which came out a few years ago. Jeff Beck - A Day In The Life. The guitar sounds so amazing in it. Vanessa Mae - Because. She did really well with it. That same album also has Celine Dion doing Here, There And Everywhere which is, to this date, the best song she has ever done (except for maybe Think Twice).

C Dubya 04 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2003 Johnny Cash's cover of "In My Life" was great. But my favorite is Gov't Mule's cover of "She said, she said". Just a wonderful version of the song. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2003 Oh, and does anyone have any opinions on Phish's live covers of several Beatles songs? I've never heard any of them, but apparently some of 'em are pretty good. Like said earlier, I'm kind of a Beatles hater, so I really didn't care for their versions, but Phish covered the entire White Album as a Halloween "costume" one year, and continued covering Day in the Life for a while afterwards. (they might have kept doing While My Guitar Gently Weeps, too, but a lot of my Phish concert memories are a bit, ahem, hazy.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest graph9 Report post Posted December 5, 2003 Peter Frampton's covers of The Long and Winding Road & Come Together. I thought both of them were off the chain. But since it came from a soundtrack of one of the shit movies of all time, no one paid attention to them. Im starting to think im the only one that did..hee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mesepher Report post Posted December 5, 2003 ah yes, Gov't Mule's covers of "She Said, She Said >> Tomorrow Never Knows jam" are quite incredible. The Mule have also torn up "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" and then there is Mike Portnoy's "Yellow Mustard Custard" thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eddie Vedder doing "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" Todd Rundgren doing "Rain" is good too Most of the I am Sam soundtrack is fantastic (much better than the movie). But all members of the band that covers "revolution" really need to be shot, in the head, with a gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
