Shawna Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Original "I Need To Know" ~ Tom Petty Cover "I Need To Know" ~ Stevie Nicks I wanted to nominate Ms. Nicks with her cover of Bob Dylan's "Just Like A Woman," but alas, I couldn't find any performance to link it to on Youtube. It's a great version, though. Unlike the man who wrote it, she hits every note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lea Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Just so everyone knows, the playlist contains so many songs we decided to do just a covers only list as well. If you don't have the time or the will to listen to the 90+ songs the first list contains, you can just listen to the Covers Only List Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Joe Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 A difficult chore this time. I hated to have to leave so many great covers off my list. We should do this again somethime. 1-Respect - Aretha Franklin '67 (Otis Redding)-(I 've always been a big Otis Redding fan and loved his original but Aretha made this her own). 2-Me and Bobby McGee - Janis Joplin '71 (Roger Miller) (It's hard to imagine anyone else singing this one). 3-Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore, The - Walker Brothers (Frankie Valli & 4 Seasons) (I love the BIG sound the Walker Bros give this one). 4-Woodstock - Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young '70 (Joni Mitchell)-(This song IS Woodstock). 5-Take Me To The River - Talking Heads '79 (Al Green)-(Washa me down). 6-Hard To Handle - Black Crowes '90 (Otis Redding)-(The Crowes showed great respect and talent in their treatment of Otis' original). 7-With A Little Help From My Friends - Joe Cocker '68 (Beatles)-(One of the most classic covers ever). 8-Blowin' In The Wind - Peter, Paul and Mary '63 (Bob Dylan)-(This cover established PP&M as giants in folk). 9-Take Me In Your Arms" - Doobie Brothers (Kim Weston)-(At the time I thought an unlikely cover but the Doobies kicked ass with it). 10-When Will I Be Loved - Linda Ronstadt (Everly Brothers)-(Linda does such a great job with all of her covers. We could have a Linda Ronstadt Top Ten Covers list). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
