Nice to see you EddieBrock

Welcome to DC.
Back in the day, I wore out The Who's Tommy on vinyl. Your post got me to wonderin' where I'd heard "We Aren't Gonna Take It" in a different style. So went lookin' and got reminded of The Hillbenders' Tommy: A Bluegrass Opry.

LT, thanks for the introduction to Lake Street Dive. I subscribed on YouTube and followed on Spotify. Like their "Rich Girl" cover a lot too.

Gillian Welch - All the Good Times

Just finished listening to Gillian Welch and David Rawlings's newly released covers album titled All the Good Times. I love her voice and his guitar. He takes lead vocals on half the songs here which is cool because her voice is just as evocative and attention-grabbing when she's harmonizing. Especially liked Elizabeth Cotten's "Oh Babe It Ain't No Lie"; in fact, liked it better than the Grateful Dead's cover.

The other one I'll mention here is "Jackson", the Johnny Cash/June Carter standard.

Or Mothers and Daughters

Nice LT. Always admired Roseanne Cash and probably like her version of "Tennessee Flat Top Box" a little better.
Thought about Miley Cyrus, Lisa Marie Presley, and Nancy Sinatra to follow your theme.

But isn't Roeanne Cash sorta Maybelle Carter's grandaughter by marriage? How about mothers and three daughters with a son-in-law and a couple grand-daughters thrown in for good measure?

Tempted to include covers by non-kinfolk but it would be a pretty long list including Emmylou Harris, Joan Baez, Chet Atkins, Roy Clark, Molly Tuttle, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Doc Watson, Clarence White, Suzy Bogguss, Reese Witherspoon, Flatt & Scruggs, Cowboy Copas, Iris De Ment, Tony Rice, Jim Reeves, Merle Travis, Hank Thompson, Ricky Skaggs, The Browns, Johnny Winter, Loretta Lynn, Ralph Stanley
...
to name just a few.
 
John Prine recorded "Clay Pigeons" on his John Prine Fair&Square Album. I think it sounds like a John Prine song. Prine says he thinks so too at 1:14 on the video below.

Blaze Foley wrote it. Not likely you ever heard him on the radio though. His friend, Towns Van Zandt, said, "Blaze only went crazy once. Stayed there though." I recently watched a movie on Showtime that Ethan Hawke made about Blaze Foley.
Anyway, here he is singing the John Prine song he wrote hisself.
