Thanks, Dad

LT, Thanks for the Father's Day reminder.

My dad was in his mid-30s before going on an all expense paid tour of England, France, Belgium, and Germany.

Before that, he was fighting for better wages, reasonable hours and safer working conditions. The labor movement led efforts to stop child labor, give health benefits and provide aid to workers who were injured or retired.

Thanks, Dad, Mom,

Sorry, Fiona Apple has way more talent than I do, but her vocals are just kind of cliche to me. There is nothing about it that stands out. It is pretty, but it lacks "soul." A John Lennon song should have some soul... some grit. Just my personal opinion. No offense intended.

Jon Lennon is hard to cover. It's kind of like a guitar player covering a Jimi Hendrix song.

I only referenced that song in regards to covering a song and slowing it down from the original. I actually like it over Lennon's original faster version.

Heh, I just can't see why some Lora Lee country singer hasn't taken on CCR's original "Lodi" and slowed it way down and sultry like. That song also has potential to be sung slowed way down by some country gal singer. Just a whim of mine.

CCR would be another tough cover. John Fogerty has a voice that is unmistakeable. So gritty, in the best way.

An interesting live cover of Crossroads by Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees that I stumbled onto.

"A once-in-a-lifetime performance that placed Chuck D. of Public Enemy, Darryl DMC McDaniels of Run DMC, Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart, Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins of Foo Fighters, all the members of Rush, John Fogerty, Tom Morello, Gary Clark Jr. and Chris Cornell perform the classic blues jam "Crossroads" live at the 2013 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony in Los Angeles."

The Staves - "I'm On Fire"

Been interested in female harmonies recently. Listening to:
  • Dolly, Emmylou, and Linda
  • The Andrew Sisters
  • Heart
  • The Judds
  • The Carter Family (Sisters)
  • Pistol Annies
Stumbled onto The Staves, an English sister trio with two albums and several EPs on Spotify. I've listened to most of it but this Springsteen cover is the track I like best.
