THE CLASH of Cover Tunes
The Barracudas vs. Pearl Jam vs. Trumpetmouth vs. Skeeter-Kinney
The Barracudas:
Pearl Jam:
Killer performance at Madison Square Garden, July 8, 2003. Mega-group includes Johnny Marr, Betchadupa, Cheetah Chrome, Sleater Kinney, Corin Tucker, Mike Tyler, Steve Earle, Jack Irons, Ben Harper, Billy Gibbons, Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart, Idlewild, and the Buzzcocks. Damn!!!
Trumpetmouth:
Skeeter-Kinney:

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!??!

cover me impressed 
I heard some Barracudas’ songs decades age and I liked them. However, nothing special happening here.
What a spectacle at Madison Square Garden. Looks like it was great fun! Outstanding!!! Who’s the Will Farrell looking dude whose mike appears to be turned off?
Love Trumpetmouth’s short romp. This is from a great ska/punk cd that I bought back in the ’90s.
Skeeter-Kinney throw it down with such verve and raw energy. Attitude galore! Gotta love these women.
Thought I would vote for Trumpetmouth for nostalgic reasons alone. But have to give it to Pearl Jam’s block party whose spirited version was not only excellent but also loads of fun to behold.
