So you mean just a regular covers album then?

I'd rather she didn't, personally. If she were to do an album of mostly jazz/blues standards with maybe a couple of wildcards thrown in (a la Willie Nelson's Stardust, which is still a brilliant album, even if it is the one that first gave rock and country stars the idea to flood the marketplace with all manner of crap in the same vein), with a very small, basic band and maybe a string quartet or something, I think that could be interesting.

But just a bunch of rock covers? What would be the point? Would she be inspired enough to make them significantly different from the originals? A whole album of "I Need To Know" and "Just Like A Woman" ain't gonna cut it.
