Was in a mood to look for re-worked versions of great songs and found this. From Peter Gabriel’s 3rd album, which I love. Maybe my favorite track on the record. Incredible song.  Re-done by a truly great creative artist with a giant catalog of fascinating alternative versions. Literally yelped when I found it. Couldn’t turn it on fast enough, and…..

it blows. Seriously, it’s bad. How did that happen? Hate the vocal so, so much. Unvelievable.

Currently watching season 4 of The Bear. Feels like they’re still struggling to thread some stuff together but, man, whomever picks their music never, ever, misses.This is from a Dion 1975 solo album called Born to Be with You and it’s freaking awesome. Just a perfect song. Wow, love it. Didn’t know that guy was even recording at that point. Now I gotta break out the full album.

Here's a Peter Gabriel cover that doesn't blow, although it songs COMPLETELY different than the original.  It's a live version of "Shock the Monkey' covered by Local H, although just the drummer and guitar/singer.

Local H is plain cool. Scott Lucas is great. They also did a great version of Wolf Like Me and a lot of their catalog is just fun.

They showed up and played halftime of the Double Doink Bears/Eagles playoff game and absolutely ripped. A group of guys sitting next to us that would’ve been in the age group to be big Local H-in-their-heyday Chicago guys thought it was simultaneously random as hell and awesome.
