I know what you mean, he's just a kid still so I'm sure he'll find his own way. He's got a great ear for those chord changes that make the hair on your arms stand up.

My bro still has trips to the states searching in basements looking for rare soul and selling it over here. His pension fund is his basement full of vinyl. Never could stand it myself.jimibt wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:17 pmyou need to listen to the craig charles funk 'n soul show on a saturday night bro (gloria jones [almost said martha reeves])Derek27 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:14 pm...and I thought Soft Cell did the original.MemphisFlash wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:07 pmBest version Of Tainted Love

it's a risky investment as fire precautions (sprinklers) would kill the covers (no pun intended - and maybe even warp the vinyl). good luck to him, if you know what you're looking for, it must be a great pastime thoShaunWhite wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:43 pmMy bro still has trips to the states searching in basements looking for rare soul and selling it over here.

If you buy your kids a guitar rather than an xbox...https://youtu.be/CgVqX0a49HM?t=123 ...and they eventually grow into this https://youtu.be/o0NJiasWrLc
He does a stunning version of Tears in Heaven too but I can't listen to it as my dearest friend, how passed away, played it at his 3yo son's funeral, and we played it at his too..... and it absolutely destroys me still. That's it, it's set me off again, I shouldn't have thought about that. Fck.

Saw those guys for the first time on 8 out of 10 cats does countdown (I love British panel shows and the daft humour involved more so than a non-British really should). Had to check good ol' Google whether it was an act or they were that dorkyShaunWhite wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 3:48 pmThe undisputed kings of the cover, Brett Domino and Steven Peavis (aka the Brett Domino Trio)

I dislike almost all covers, I come across. Music for me is about someone pouring their inner soul into words and sound, much like literature with the words part of it. That's bloody hard to do with a cover. The only musician I've come across able to do something special with multiple covers is Jeff Buckley, with his Hallelujah being a standout and the only cover, among about a million of them, of that Cohen classic doing anything for me. Which just makes his early demise all the more sad; before he could do more of his own work.
