Rhino’s Got You Covered: Esther Phillips, Neil, ZZ Top, and Lindsey Buckingham (Article)
Wednesday, October 23, 2019
It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before. Let’s get started, shall we? • Esther Phillips, “As Tears Go By” (1965): You’ll know this Rolling Stones song, of course, from Marianne Faithfull’s cover, but Philips had a thing for the British Invasion, scoring a hit this same year with her cover of The Beatles’ “And I Love Her.” • Neil, “Hole in My Shoe” (1984): If you watched The Young Ones, then you know Neil, and if you know Neil, then you won’t be surprised how many hippie-era

It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new... Wait a minute, this is more than just a quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before! Yes, that’s right: we’re following in the same mindset today as we were with yesterday’s installment of “Gone Digital,” which is to say that we know you’re stuck at home and therefore likely listening to more music than usual, so we didn’t want you to somehow run out of possibilities. As such, we’ve actually offered up eight covers this week. Let’s get started, shall we? • Cliff Richard,

It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before. Let’s get started, shall we? • Blur, “Maggie May” (1993): Originally recorded as the band’s contribution to NME’s anniversary compilation, RUBY TRAX, this Rod Stewart cover later made its way onto the B-side of a 7” release of “Chemical World.” These days it can also be found on the expanded version of the band’s MODERN LIFE IS RUBBISH album. • Billy Vera and Judy Clay, “Soul Man” (1968): Before you ask, yes, it’s that Billy Vera, i

It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before. Let’s get started, shall we? • Danny Gatton, “The Simpsons” (1991): Yes, it’s the TV theme song that you think it is, and it’s an awesome version of it, too. The late Mr. Gatton was a guitar god, and his absence from this plane of existence has in no way lessened the impressiveness of his skills as a string-slinger, so if you dig this, then you should definitely explore some of the other work in his back catalog...and if you’re

It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before. Let’s get started, shall we? • Johnny Harris, “Give Peace a Chance” (1970): Taken from his MOVEMENTS album, this John Lennon protest anthem is given a thoroughly funky reading here, and it works incredibly well. All we are saying is, give this a spin. • Basix, “Englishman in New York” (2001): This Danish acapella group has released five studio albums to date, and the diversity of the selections they’ve chosen to cover is astounding

It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before. Let’s get started, shall we? • Bloodstone, “As Time Goes By” (1975): We kick off this week’s column with the opener from the soundtrack to Train Ride to Hollywood, a thoroughly strange film which featured Bloodstone riding the rails to Tinseltown with a cast of celebrity lookalikes from the golden age of film (Bogie, W.C. Fields, etc.), plus a few token impersonators of then-current icons like Marlon Brando as The Godfather. Trying

It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before. Let’s get started, shall we? • Carmen McRae, “More Today Than Yesterday” (1970): Truly a jazz vocalist’s jazz vocalist, not to mention one of the influential singers of the genre, McRae’s skill at interpreting other people’s songs was tremendous, and she loved to tackle pop tunes. Indeed, during her tenure on Atlantic Records, she tackles songs by the Beatles, the Beach Boys, Burt Bacharach and Hal David, Paul Simon, Jimmy Webb, and

It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before. Let’s get started, shall we? • Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt & Emmylou Harris, “After the Gold Rush” (1999): When these three legends first united for the TRIO album in 1987, it was a major event, which meant that it was only a matter of time before they joined forces again. Granted, it’s hard to wrangle three schedules, hence the dozen years it took for TRIO TWO to emerge, but we didn’t’ hear anybody complaining once they heard it. •

Let’s get started, shall we? • The Paul Butterfield Blues Band, “Mary, Mary” (1966): This is one of those semi-covers that we’re including on a technicality, since Butterfield and his Blues Band were recording a song that was written by someone else – Michael Nesmith – but their version actually came out before the version by The Monkees. Still, close enough, right? (Just go along with it. It’s too late to turn back now, anyway.) •

It’s Wednesday, so it must be time to take another dip into the Rhino catalog and trot out a new quartet of cover songs that you may or may not have heard before. Let’s get started, shall we? • Al B. Sure!, “Hotel California” (1990): After finding tremendous success with his 1988 debut album, IN EFFECT MODE, Al B. Sure! returned two years later with PRIVATE TIMES…AND THE WHOLE 9! and kicked off the proceedings with – of all things – this Eagles cover. We’re not sure why he opted to do so, but as the website SlowJams.com said of the track, “Al seems to have a knack for not just re-singing older
