DrW Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 In another thread a while ago, we touched on the topic of violinists in rock. Here is another one, Don 'Sugercane" Harris, with his short-lived band "Pure Food and Drug Act". They just had one album, "Choice Cuts", with an interesting cover of "Eleanor Rigby" (sorry, no video). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buftex Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) This is pretty cool...a different version of Dylan doing "Hurricane". A little slower...love Emmylou's harmonies...kinda cute the way she obviously doesn't feel comfortable using the "n" word...or maybe she just didn't know all the lyrics. Great song....not sure if I like this better than the more famous version, but its pretty great. Edited July 27, 2020 by Buftex 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Poojer Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Scott Bradlee and Puddles the Clown can both kiss my ass. Stop freaking stealing and repurposing songs that never needed repurposing.

Stop freaking stealing and repurposing songs that never needed repurposing. Just my 2 cents I don’t understand the success of Puddles the Clown, but I really enjoy PMJ and what Scott Bradlee has put together. I’d much rather hear musicians and singers of their caliber repurpose songs than say, the cast of Glee, who now have more Top 10 songs than the Beatles, Stones and Elton John combined. Now that’s a travesty. And, Pooj, if you’re watching the video that I posted and focusing on Scott Bradlee and not, the angel who fell to Earth, Morgan James you need to reassess your priorities. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop freaking stealing and repurposing songs that never needed repurposing. Just my 2 cents I have no idea who Puddles the Clown is. But while I don't like everything Bradlee does, he has improved a vast number of the trite pop tunes he's covered. Unlike sampling and remixes (you OK with those?) he completely reworks/rearranges (not repurposed) the songs. So while they retain the lyrics and bare bones, his versions are far different from the originals. I have little use for most covers that simply play the tune as the original artist performed them. BTW, unlike many samples, he gives full credit to the actual songwriter. Perhaps I feel this way, because I'm a jazz fan. Reworking songs in a particular style has always been quite accepted in jazz. Some of the best jazz tunes are reworked standards from other songwriters. My biggest complaint about Bradlee is his choice of material to improve. While he succeeds, much of the original material is pretty freaking ordinary, IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Dean. I'm actually trying to learn Tony Rice's clawhammer guitar style now. The quality of that OneMic recording series is incredible. Do you happen to know if that's on a bluray or some other uncompressed source? I'd like to add that to my test tracks for my hifi setup.
