I mentioned this in another thread last light, so it would be remiss of me not to post it

Nina Gordon's folk acoustic version on NWA's 'Straight Outta Compton'... contains naughty words - consider yourself warned!!!

Posted this before but it's quite interesting because Hank's version was so successful that everyone* thinks he wrote it.



*everyone who listens to this sort of shoot that is.

Same as this song, I'll post the original because the cover is crap and John Fogerty is a leg-end.

How about Dave Philips & The Hot Rod Gangs version???
It's Mark Harman from the rockabilly band Restless on lead guitar (great guitar break @ 1.30)

And....in comparison, there's this version from an animated series; 'The Batman' http://worldsfinestonline.com/WF/thebatman/



Although it was definately nowhere near as good as the 'Dark Deco' 'Batman; The Animated Series' of the 90's, this one; http://worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/

I'll raise that with a 'Long Black Shiney Car'

 

[Linford]

Better than the original

Devo's satisfaction that set off this thread is a superb cover. I like The Clash version of I Fought the Law, I quite enjoy Bobby Fullers jangly guitar version too and think the Flying Lizards version of Money is head and shoulders above the Beatles.

I prefer the versions Johnny Cash did of One & Personal Jesus more than his take on Hurt - I'd have loved to hear him do Hurt in his pomp and really ramp the anger as well as the resignation into it
