Moe_Syzlak Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I've been listening to most of these. The Golden Age might be my favorite so far, but I just really love that tune. I've posted a few bedroom recorded tracks, but here is my old band's version of Gypsy Queen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PopTodd Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Thanks, pifin! I updated the page again, with the first half of songs being me and my bands covering others, and the second half being other folks covering my songs. Seems like a thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitty Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 The Burning Dirty Band does "Where Is My Mind" by Pixies. I get the task of doing those weird high-pitch wails. I think I get about 90% of them It's a large file- 39 MB, but pretty nice quality... plus bonus stage banter! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spaceship Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Not that great, or even all that original: Knockin' On Heaven's Door. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spaceship Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I may live to regret posting it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncool2pillow Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Great version. I love the strings arrangement and your voice. Besides being the obvious song to cover (and there's nothing wrong w/ that) it's very cool. No regrets needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ralph Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Not sure this'll work but, what the hell. http://villageathiest.muxtape.com/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spaceship Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Then this will I most definitely regret: I Felt Like Smashing My Face In A Clear Glass Window. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GtrPlyr Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Not sure this'll work but, what the hell. http://villageathiest.muxtape.com/Great choice of covers. I love that Handsome Family song. Very nice version too I might add. Nice one Froggie. I think I'm going to have to relearn that one. Page sure came up with some stunning chord progressions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

junebug Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 My band plays a bunch of covers live...IMO some sound better than others!We do: Cortez the Killer (Neil Young)Knockin' on Heaven's Door (Dylan)Fans (Kings of Leon)Wagon Wheel (Old Crowe Medicine Show)Cripple Creek (The Band)Stir it Up (Marley)Let it Ride (Ryan Adams) I think Wagon Wheel is my favorite..basically because we do it electric, so our approach/arrangement is very different.Heaven's Door is fun too...I get to play some slide on it Have some vids on:http://www.myspace.com/radioislandband Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ralph Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I put up a cover of Woodgrain i did a couple years ago...I love what my dog adds to the atmosphere (besides making me crack up).
