I’m a fan of CCR but absolutely hate that cover.

It’s my favourite version of the song. Different strokes.

Prefer it to the original? Jaysus flatty.

I do. I never really liked the original funnily enough. Credence had some great tunes.

aslan - alone again naturally

Christy voice is fading but lovely emotion in this song. Poignant

Tool - No Quarter (Led Zeppelin cover)

One of my favourite Zeppelin songs got a do-over from Tool. They took the original, added their own interpretation and flair, and the end-result is a better song in its own right than Zeppelin’s original. Lock the door…kill the lights… this is a belter.
