Tune du Jour: “I Feel Fine” – The Beatles
THE CLASH of Cover Tunes: Akim, Sam Clayton & Les Guitares vs. Parasites vs. The Ventures

 

I read it in the Sunday papers …

A Turkish man was kicked off a TV dating show after admitting on the air that he’d murdered his first wife during a jealous rage and “accidentally” killed his next lover “when I swung an ax.” Sefer Calinak, 62, cheerfully admitted his violent history on The Luck of the Draw, saying he’d served 14 years in jail for the crimes. Calinak was asked to leave the show by the horrified host, but later told a newspaper that he hadn’t given up his search for love. “I have changed,” he said. “The woman who will marry me should not be afraid that I would kill her.”

Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. It is your solemn responsibility to decide which cover song prevails. In other words … Which Side Are You On?!!?

One of my favorite Dylan songs. And these three covers represent themselves well.

Bob Dylan:

Copyrights preclude Dylan’s original version from appearing.

Bob Dylan’s 30th Anniversary Concert Celebration (aka “Bobfest”):

Okay this is just plain ridiculous. Bob Dylan, Roger McGuinn, Tom Petty, Neil Young, Eric Clapton and George Harrison on stage at the same time! I mean c’mon. I don’t know, can anyone name another show that featured as many music icons on stage at the same time?
