By deep I mean with the most obscure original. I am not talking ‘all along the watch tower’ but things like Fever Ray’s cover of Vashti Bunyan’s song Here before

Fever Ray is relatively well known while Bunyan had very limited success

    The Louis Prima Orchestra’s cover of “Whatta Ya Gonna Do?”, by Sunny Skylar. One of my favorite songs, a perfect blend of New Orleans and New York in the 40s. The link above is the only version I can find on the internet, which is instrumental. The version on the record I have has vocals and is cleaner. I hope somebody works to preserve Louis Prima’s catalog from the 40s digitally, there’s so much old music at risk of being lost!
