This topic makes Aussie band Kid Courageous spring to mind with their excellent cover of the Joe Jackson classic 'Is She Really Going Out With Him'
Over 100,000 plays on their official Myspace site.
13 track Album 'Dear Diary' released in Australia to critical acclaim back in May.
Japan release date set for next week on August 7th.
...it is a great testament to the elder statesmen of the business that the young bands respect their material . It has not been forced down the young bands throats and it is the decision of the artistes to have covered it. "Don`t Stop me Now", is a very complicated arrangement by any standard, and does take some pulling off, due to it`s eclectic piano led original.
I cowered under a very big table cloth when the Sex Pistols went down the easy to play Eddie Cochran route, which notably inspired punk, but after what had proceded it,(i.e Floyd , Genesis etc) we were back to grade one music once again, but? We all loved it.
McFly?
"Summertime Blues"?,
bring it on.......It`s fun.
