Cover 'Em All Vol.1: Music Suggestion Of The Day 06/12/2015
Today I was thinking something
of a mega combo, instead of a Great One from the List… Why not everyone (well
almost)?? A post tribute to garage, some consider to be the actual first rock
genre (considering rock as something only white men played). With the term
garage one should perceive as bands gathered around a DIY studio performing their
favorite bands and tracks. The story of Rock’ n Roll is filled with cover
versions of other people’s songs…Some made covers the ground base of their
success story (Elvis, Beatles, Rolling Stones), some used it as tool of
promoting significant bands that were unknown but quite remarkable…This post is rather a big connect them all, through the most characteristic of the genre; the freedom to cover your favorite tune, maybe in a garage...maybe as a garage, such as Iguanas...
Some use cover tunes as a
ticket to stardom, some use it as a way of expression…Ay way to see it is quite
joyful to compile significant cover versions that were both astonishing and well
renowned today. Trying to put them together I’ve decided to have some relevance
and historic continuity to our favorite music. So starting off from well-known
covers of earlier tunes by giants of vintage rock such as Jerry Lee and Elvis,
Helloween covering Elvis and so on… We’ve included the cover song some named
the 1st heavy metal tune ever ("Summertime Blues" but I think that the Beatle “I Want you
(She’s so Heavy”) track may claim the relative title), some better than the original tracks (Orgasmatron/Am I Evil?), plus the country cover
to cover, even if country is covering other timelines and sub-genres (mixing up Creedence, Zeppelin, Hendrix, Jam, Cash and Dylan, all covering someone
else’s tunes), only to end up to the best reps of the British Invasion (covered by everyone e.g. Ghost B.C., Sisters), through Frost to David Bowieand the Punk scene covered by metal or not so metal bands (such as
Megadeth, Destruction, Sepultura, Slayer, or RHCP, covering the Pistols, Exploited, DK, G.B.H./Stooges/T.S.O.L., or Ramones)
