The Naked City post brought back memories of that great period in Bill Frisell's career.

This track is from a Nino Rota tribute album with Bill covering themes from Fellini's Juliet of the Spirits.

Three Dog Night did innovative covers of tons of great 60's and 70's artists. Hoyt Axton and Paul Williams, among them.

NB: I didn't go through 14 pages, so if they've already been mentioned.. never mind..

I would post Sinead O Conner Nothing Compares To You (Illicit Mix), but it's nowhere to be found on the interweb. I think I prefer O Conners version to Prince and I prefer this remix to to original. Illicit is a group of bootleg remixers. They've done so many great remixes through the decades (India Arie's Brown Skin one of my faves.) Anyway, they turned it into a trip hop masterpiece with the most chill saxophone break in the middle. At least it resides on one of my music backup USBs.

Speaking of USB. This just played in the car and I'd forgot about it. Candy Flip - Strawberry Fields Forever

Yes' cover of Paul Simon's America that we didn't get to hear back in the day due to the fact that "Long Playing" albums were not always long enough.
