I love both Tori Amos's and The Dixie's Chicks' version of Landslide. I hate most of that Rumours cover CD.

But, I heard a great version of I Know I'm Not Wrong. I posted about it in another place, but I should have put that post here! They are called the 1900's and below is a link to them doing it live. I'm still trying to get the version their studio version that I heard.

Also, Tom Petty does a live version of Oh Well on his new 4 disc live Anthology collection. I kind of like it.

Finally, Lucy Wainwright Roche does a decent cover of Everywhere.

How about a thread where we talk about who we would like to cover some Mac songs????

I'd love to hear ...
Dolly Parton do That's Alright
Patty Griffin do Storms
Teddy Thompson do Love in Store
Counting Crows do Save Me a Place
Mary Chapin Carpenter do Honey Hi
Heart do Smile at You

OK, I'm off to hunt down Cyndi's YMLF!

[Kool Kovers blog 3/15/2014, by Bill Sammon About Kottke's cover of World Turning]

http://koolkovers.blogspot.com/2014/...d-turning.html

Another artist who feels a kinship with unusual rhythms is the widely acknowledged master of the 12 string guitar, Leo Kottke. I first heard his astounding work in the early 70's, in an ad for a show he was playing at a local Folk-oriented coffeehouse in suburban Philadelphia known as The Main Point. Kottke's guitar playing sounded to me like it was everywhere, yet right there at the same time. His technique and skill were such that the sound he created was nothing short of arresting.

Much of Kottke's work is instrumental, though he has recorded many noteworthy vocals. His discography is extensive, to say the least, and is spread out over multiple decades and record labels. The concept of compiling a cross-label, comprehensive boxed set of Leo's recordings would be daunting. Nonetheless, Leo is the rare sort of skilled musician where the popularity of one of his recordings over another is a poor barometer of the quality contained therein. There's plenty of gold to be found.

As a comparison to Kottke's seeming reluctance to sing, which can be construed as his saying that his instrument is more eloquent than himself, Kottke's music is its own best definition. Leo Kottke is best heard, rather than described second hand, as attempts at description of his music are often futile. Suffice it to say, as I already have, that he is a master musician. If you enjoy acoustic music at all, and acoustic guitar in particular, you owe it to yourself to look into the world of Leo Kottke.

From Leo's 1997 album, "Standing In My Shoes", here is his version of "World Turning". Enjoy.

[From an article about Lake Street Drive]

http://dubbophotonews.com.au/index.p...ke-street-dive

Showing they truly have a great musical sense of humour, each year the band puts out a Halloween video of their reworking of a boy-girl-boy-girl band hit (think The Mamas & the Papas, Abba, Starland Vocal Band), further proving their lyrical prowess. Their version of Fleetwood Mac’s Second Hand News, filmed when just goofing around is something to behold.

I've posted this before, but it's kicking my butt. Lindsey plays guitar on the album version they did.

I love Lake Street Dive and saw them live at the Wiltern Theatre last summer. I've not heard their cover of Second Hand News so must look it up. Thanks much for sharing this article!

Was Vampire Weekend's cover of Everywhere posted on here? I can't remember.. if not I'll link.

My absolute favorite FM cover EVER EVER EVER is Garden and Villa's cover of Gypsy.. I don't know why, I just love it to death.
