At first I rounded it to 30 years but I’m a math geek.Spoon is one of my favorite bands of the past 28 years.
This struck me as funny, even with the next sentence.

I thought they did a demo studio version before the Fillmore performance, but could be wrong.They never did a studio version that I know of. The previous entry was a recording from a 1973 concert from after Peter Frampton left the band, which wasn't officially released until the 21st century. This one is from a 1971 live album, and it is what got played on FM radio a bunch.IIRC, the first time this cover appeared here, it was the studio version. The live version here at Fillmore West takes it to a whole other level IMO. I recall that our dearly departed Wikkid was a huge Steve Marriott/Humble Pie fan.zamboni:

There was no point in continuing down the blues-reworkings path after Zep recorded this. Levee takes that approach as far as it can go, and reinvents the blues into something else entirely. The monstrous drums and backwards harmonica are the obvious standout parts, but what’s most impressive to me is the overall effect of the sound, which evokes swamps, stew, buzzsaws and vacuum cleaners — it’s so viscous AND vicious. Every second of this is genius.
I really wanted to pick Spiderbait's cover of "Ghost Riders in the Sky", but it's only available on the Ghost Rider soundtrack.Yep, great choice. Black Betty has been a hit so many times in Australia.
Please, PLEASE take Duke out of this thing
Wow, how did I forget to include this in my list?!? I feel dumb now.Louie Louie – The Kingsmen (Rockin Robin Roberts) -- I knew this was a cover because a squillion different acts attempted it. It was like Hey Joe in that regard. What made the Kingsmen's version stand out was the garbled vocal, which some listeners thought was hiding obscene lyrics (it wasn't).
I cast a spell on Duke this morning. The chant is supposed to suppress and keep the Devil away, so I hope it works. I probably should have consulted our New Orleans resident Doug B on this voodoo stuff.Please, PLEASE take Duke out of this thing
Legend has it that the microphone in the studio was parked too far above the singer's head, so he had to crane his neck up and that led to the messed-up vocals. I don't think it would have mattered where the mike was, as that dude couldn't sing The whole band is a mess. Which is why this record is the punkest any punk ever punked. Eat your hearts out, Pistols & Nirvana.Louie Louie – The Kingsmen (Rockin Robin Roberts) -- I knew this was a cover because a squillion different acts attempted it.

If they hadn't won the ACCT, do you think Keats would have been fired?I cast a spell on Duke this morning. The chant is supposed to suppress and keep the Devil away, so I hope it works.

Guess what was playing on the radio this afternoon when I got in the car to go to the colony?? Hungry Like the Wolf!!
I don't know. It was said he was on the hot seat. My oldest nephew said he always heard at school that the players love Keatts. I guess the players love for a coach doesn't matter if you aren't winning enough games. Keats said recently that it took longer than he thought it would for the team to gel this year, but they finally found their groove. When you have all these transfers, it is like starting over with a new team each year.If they hadn't won the ACCT, do you think Keats would have been fired?

I thought they were a 6 seed that year.Jimmy V’s 1983 squad was also an 11 seed
My bad - I read it wrong. They beat the 11 seed in the first round.I thought they were a 6 seed that year.Jimmy V’s 1983 squad was also an 11 seed

Two of my remaining four have already shown up in the countdown.I remember what I chose for 3 of my Final Four. Those three are all song titles that start with the letter "A". No recall on what the 4th is.

In your case, it's probably not good.3 of my top 4 have not yet appeared.
Is that good or weird?
Hadn't thought of it, but now I can't unsee it. Good thing he never transferred to Brown University.For those who have watched NC State play, whenever Mo Diarra does something good (which is often) and it shows the back of his jersey, I always read his name as Diarrhea. Does anyone else?

Just listened to both Gonzalez's and The Knife's versions of "Heartbeats". Gonzalez's plain-spoken, sparse picking brings this song to a new level for me.
These are the two I've been referencing that I'd expected to get a lot of votes but are just showing up for the first time now.
"Heartbeats" is completely unknown to me, as are Jose Gonzalez and The Knife. I have a lot of holes in my 21st-century musical knowledge ... the little bit that I do know is probably from this board.
I forgot to post The Valentine Brothers' original: (YouTube)(Spotify)Money's Too Tight To Mention – Simply Red (The Valentine Brothers) -- This was a fun little vamp.
And I first became familiar with THAT song via a cover.Buckwheat (yes, that's what the "B,W," stands for) is mostly known for one hit, if anything. "My Maria", co-written by Moore, was a Top 40 pop hit for three months in 1973.
