BUM-KNEE Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I like both of those, too! Pistols do I'm not your stepping stone, by the Monkees! Great choice. Wow, we got some really good picks, here! Lets keep it going then we can do a poll on the top 3! I'll add to the list: Stevie Wonders Higher Ground by the RHCP's, and Stevie's Superstition done by SRV. I dont recall the Sex Pistols doing Stepping stone, sure you arent thinking of Minor Threats version? Chile Peppers - Higher ground (awesome) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barton Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Does anyone know if "Hey Joe" is an original Hendrix song? Somebody told me it wasnt, but I checked online and didnt see that. If that is a cover, then I definitely think its one of the best ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfe Jet Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I know this can be a harder-edged group, but a few personal faves: Seal - Wind Cries Mary (b-side of Newborn Friend) Jeffrey Gains - In Your Eyes Alicia Keys & Adam Levine (on her Unplugged CD) - Wild Horses 311 - Love Song (orig from The Cure, on 50 First Dates ST) Lenny Kravitz - Deuce (on the Kiss my A** tribute) Hootie/Blowfish - Use Me (a surprisingly good live version) Richard Cheese's covers are hilarious, too...

Bugg Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Johnny Cash and Joe Strummer doing Redemption Song.I go that "Legend" CD that everyone has of Marley, and on that. liking most of the oterh tracks, I skip the Marley's version of "Redemption". That Cash/Strummer one simply is much, much better than the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
