The Jesus & Mary Chain's version of Elvis Presley's Guitarman is one of my all time favorite covers.

Their version of Surfin' USA and Little Red Rooster are pretty great, too.

Oh... and their version of Bo Diddley's Who Do You Love is just evil !

I like the JAMC
:D

This is true. I can't stand Dylan. Cash is some kind of God-like warlock for making a u2 song into something verging on the pleasant

A Tom Waits cover by the Dissociatives - Goin' Out West.

It's very cool. It's Daniel johns from Silverchair's other band. Whether you like them or not, give the song a listen, it's a cool cover.

MP3 format this one.


Has anyone even checked this cover out?

Maybe I should have said something about Dinosaur Jr in my post.

It's me.

If you were happy in your own life, possessing confidence and self-assurance you wouldn't feel the need to insult.

Get a self-help book. You'll feel better about yourself.

So many covers by This Mortal Coil are great. I love what they do with Roy Harper's 'Another Day', which is already a fantastic song as it is. They did a great version of Chris Bell's 'I Am The Cosmos', another fantastic song to start with.
