Leonard Cohen Covers

What this episode covers

THERE ARE A LOT OF GREAT SONGWRITERS, BUT THERE’S ONLY A FEW AMAZING SONGWRITERS…   FOLKS HAVE INTERESTING VIEWS ON COVERS. I’VE HAD MANY A LATE NIGHT DISCUSSING THE SUBJECT. SOME HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS, THEY FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD IMPROVE UPON, OR AT LEAST BE AS GOOD AS THE ORIGINAL. SOME ARE JUST LOOKIN FOR A NEW ANGLE? PERSONALLY I DON’T THINK ANY OF THESE TUNES ARE BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL, BUT SOME ARE INTERESTING OR BRING SOMETHING NEW TO THE TABLE & OTHERS, JUST A GOOD LISTEN. SO, FIND YOURSELF A TALL GLASS, POUR YOURSELF A RED NEEDLE, RELAX & ENJOY! 1 DION-SISTERS OF MERCY 2 JUDY COLLINS-STORY OF IASAAC 3 CARISSA’S WIERD-CHELSEA HOTEL 4 ROBERTA FLACK-HEY, THAT’S NO WAY TO SAY GOODBYE 5 BECK-ONE OF US CANNOT BE WRONG 6 COIL-WHO BY FIRE 7 THE FLYING LIZARDS-SUZANNE 8 ANE BRUN-AIN’T NO CURE FOR LOVE 9 JOE COCKER-BIRD ON A WIRE 10 MADELEINE PEYROUX-DANCE ME TO THE END OF LOVE 11 ANNA CALVI-JOAN OF ARC 12 MARRISA NADLER-FAMOUS BLUE RAINCAOAT 13 PALACE SONGS-WINTER LADY 14 BECK-TEACHERS 15 BUFFALO TALES-TAKE THIS WALTZ THANX.
