Be me. Busy at work, music going. And this old favorite pops up at random after a few years of forgetting about it. Lol I fucking played the shit out of this one in sets back in the early 10s. I think we’ve all heard a few creative and fantastic covers. This being a SoM cover I can easily think of a couple of good Stones covers SoM did. Share the covers that got your attention here. The only requirement is dark and gothy.
Aesthetic Perfection - Dead of Night
the original
Orvel Peck - Dead of Night
Interesting, not familiar with orvel peck. Daniel I’ve listened to for almost 20 years. Though I need to catch up with him. I didn’t keep up for about 6 years during his Joe Letz stretch. So I haven’t heard most of his post covid stuff.
He is kind of niche, he’s a gay cowboy that sings country music. This is the only song I know by him.
I get so much country out here I tend to avoid it heh. And not the good stuff. Kenny, Dolly, Johnny, Kenny, Hank Sr, Willie etc. The mass produced jingoistic self aggrandizing kind. This isn’t that 🙂
The ones like Johnny or even Kenny are respected for their range and talent. Kenny wasn’t afraid to sing a song written by a disco Beegee written for a deceased R&B artist. Dolly too. And of course Johnny and Trent. They were artists and not just a generic product.
I don’t like most country music, with that said I like Merle Haggard, the and the Flying Burrito Brothers, and Mike Nesmith.
I also really like this cover by Elvis Costello.
Psycho
That whole album is good.
Yeah Merle is good. I am familiar in passing with the burrito brothers. And who the monkeey? Honestly I had not really looked into anything he did after that. Though I know he did have a career. I will have to check that out later looks really interesting. And Elvis well that should go without saying.
