Cover version discovery

Call me precious, but I’ve never liked any Funkadelic remix/edit/cover, let alone One Nation.
But on this cover they’ve completely changed the (ai?) vocal melody and pulled off a top shelf party record imo.

I only recently found out that ‘Nag Nag Nag’ by Cabaret Voltaire is a (very) loose cover of ‘No Escape’ by The Seeds.

Found this last night while playing at @ScottProper bar. He had it in the racks so gave it a spin. Not technically a cover I guess but more heavily sampled, but this is wild. Can’t believe its Gil Scott Heron. Love to know the story behind this

Brilliant. Totally forgotten about this.

This 12" was ubiquitous in every single second hand store throughout the 90’s here in Sydney.

Always in Reckless and Music and video exchange too for pence. Great tune!

Played on Bill Brewster’s show this morning, described as “marxist-balearic” lol

Had no idea there was an English cover of Sandra de Sá.
