I Assassin Down the Avenue Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Inspired by the just-unveiled "Wilco Covered" Uncut Magazine exclusive CD, I began to think of artists I would be interested to hear cover a few of the songs Wilco has written and recorded during their esteemed career. I also had a conversation with a couple friends about this subject. First, I will share the list I came up with, followed by the excellent choices my friends related. I would love to read some other fan ideas in this thread as well, if anyone would like to take the time to share.

Yaz Rock Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 You and I by Lucius would be nice. There is a video of the Spring Standards covering I'm Always in Love; would be nice to hear a proper studio take by them. Tom Petty doing You Never Know would have been perfect, especially as the music is so similar to Jammin' Me anyway. Los Lobos - Secret of the SeaMark Knopfler - One Sunday MorningBen Kweller - Box Full of LettersOld 97s - CandyflossSoul Asylum - Student Loan Stereo I'm trying to think what song would be perfect for Joseph Arthur...perhaps You Are My Face. Or maybe How Do You Fight Loneliness. Good choices for Pearl Jam up there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
