Album Cover Vol. 1: Diamonds and Rust



  • Here are some great cover-versions for you. Some strange, some hilarious, some better than the original and a few plain stupid. Senor Coconut does one great longue-version of "Smoke on the Water" and Richard Cheese shows really bad taste on "Sunday Bloody Sunday". The SPace Lady does one really strange version of "Major Tom" and Meat Puppets "Everybody Hurts" is just plain weird.

  • But some of the songs are really kilers as well. Listen to Judas Priests version of "Diamond & Rust" the Joan Baez classic, and my personal favourite at the moment have to be Nouvelle Vagues "Too Drunk to Fuck", a kind of late night Jazzversion of Dead Kennedys punkclassic.
