Some people are thick as fuck.speaking of the pale saints, their take on the nancy sinatra song which i'd never heard at the time.
For fucks sake Wombat, do you know how the internet works? Just be cool and get with the now will ya. Fucking link your song you lazy dark aged twat.
I couldn't do it either mate, Micky gave me a guided tour on my "How do you" post.With a Little Help from my Friends - Joe Cocker / The Beatles
Morning all. Wombat is right, in my world All along the Watchtower is the finest cover.
Having bought John Wesley Harding when it was released, I knew the song really well, The Hendrix version though, that was something else.
Cover versions rarely work for me when it is a song that I already know and like, but from the moment I heard this, in a film I think, I was stunned.
It remains a favourite to this day.
Thanks Malc - that's a great way to start off the weekend. Free cranked up to full volume!Free's version of a Albert King song
Free were the first band I ever saw around 1969 at Loughborough Uni, was totally transfixed watching them, Kossoff's expressions Andy Fraser's dump dump bass and of course Paul Rodgers great voice. The second album hadn't been out long, that night certainly set me on the path I am still on They opened with The Hunter.Thanks Malc - that's a great way to start off the weekend. Free cranked up to full volume!
Rogers & Kossof in full pomp with one of the best rhythm sections in rock, backing them up. All at 17-18 years old..... amazing.
So envious Rodney, My one big musical regret is never seeing Free live. Closest I got was Paul Rodgers FREE SPIRIT gig at the Demont 2 years ago.Free were the first band I ever saw around 1969 at Loughborough Uni, was totally transfixed watching them, Kossoff's expressions Andy Fraser's dump dump bass and of course Paul Rodgers great voice. The second album hadn't been out long, that night certainly set me on the path I am still on They opened with The Hunter.
Pleasure Mate, Never hid my love of Free or The Faces, so any excuse to post a link...Check out Free live at the I O W 1970 ( on the tube ) doing a slightly slower more blusey version of The Hunter, stunning vocals by Rodgers.Thanks Malc - that's a great way to start off the weekend. Free cranked up to full volume!
