Dutch hard-rock/AOR-band Redstacks made an album of original songs, called Revival Of The Fittest, but also play a very good version of Deep Purple's, Highway Star:



Here's a track for their new album.

Sounds great.

Damnit. I was enjoying the hecky-darn out of that, and wondering how they were going to handle the "loud part."

And then that glorious, glorious organ came in ...

...and then it went >poof!< gone. What a lost opportunity.

Dianne Reeves - In Your Eyes

[interbellum]

Nils Petter Molvær covers the Radiohead-track True Love Waits on his albums Stitches from 2021. The original composition is from A Moon Shaped Pool (2016).

It's named Slade, it sounds like a bad cover band to me.



Look Wot You Dun sounds a bit less bad.

[MudShark22]

Is that really Slade? [emoji44] Gotta go listen....

[headcrash]

Is that really Slade? [emoji44] Gotta go listen....

Well, it has one original member.

[MudShark22]

I was recently reminded of this chunk of pop culture silliness. I'm getting SCTV/Juul Haalmeyer Dancers vibes from the whole thing, except that they were, I guess, "serious."

[Mister Triscuits]

they were, I guess, "serious."

I honestly can't tell. His exaggerated mugging and bizarre enunciation scream "This is preposterous, but they're making me do it." Or maybe that's genuinely his idea of how to deliver a "rock and roll number."

Here's an unusual cover of the Moody Blues' "Nights in White Satin" by Rock Goddess, a female heavy metal band from the 1980s. Not really a fan of the vocals.

[Sturgeon's Lawyer]

First Bert Parks, then this ^^^. My brain hurts.
