I am still blown away by a discovery I made yesterday and I think that the “what are you listening to right now” thread was the wrong place to post it in.
Here is Nurses Whispering Verses, by The 180 Gs, done entirely a capella - if with the help of some software - at the instigation of one David Minnick.
And now here is the original by Cardiacs.
Are you not enthralled? And not only has Minnick done this for the entire Sing to God album, spending four years on the project, he is now working on a similar conversion of Beefheart’s Trout Mask Replica.
I'm glad someone else knows that Cardiacs cover. It's a pretty ballsy choice, not to mention it's in a weird time sig - 5/4?
Btw if you like Cardiacs, check out Leader of the Starry Skies, the tribute album. A lot of the songs are similar to the originals, but one that is almost completely different is A/C Woods' Joining the Plankton.
I only know Erik from Skid Row....I really didn't want to like him because he wasn't Sebastian But I've really gotten to like him over time and was sorry he had to leave for health reasons.
Anyway, I think he's a good singer with a varied range.
Hi, my 1st post on urban75.
I was going to offer June Tabor & Oysterband Love will Tear us Apart but I see I am a couple of years late with that one.
Do parodies count?
If not I will try again.
