Cover Charge is simple: A covers B, B covers C, C covers D and so on, until I loop back to where I started, Ouroboros-style.
Last time: Primal Scream to Nick Cave
I remember getting today's cover courtesy of a magazine cover-mount CD. I know some Pulp fans aren't necessarily enamoured with this Own Stamp but me, I was (and remain) quite taken with Nick Cave's waltz-timed take on Disco 2000. Pulp themselves were obviously similarly impressed; long before the CD cover-mount, they'd put Nick's version on the B-side of their single Bad Cover Version, in 2002.
The original needs scant introduction from me. From the juggernaut that was 1995's Different Class, here's Jarvis pining after Deborah. We've all been there, right?
Next time: not the meter maid...
I'll stick with the original thanks.
ReplyDeleteYou can't improve perfection.
Yep, I agree; that seems to be the standard reaction, good though the Cave waltz is. It's liking watching football in the Championship: it's good, and entertaining, but the standard in the Premier League is just higher.
