Help me out on this one --

"Who Do You Love" is a cover!?
So is their whole album a cover also?
I ask because some of the other songs include:
How Do You Love
When Do You Love
Where Do You Love
...and so on. (Can't remember most of them)

Who did the original?

BTW -- I like George T's version also.

Back to the thread ...

 

[terriblepaulz]

I forgot

MC5 - Summertime Blues
Bad Brains w/ Henry Rollins - Kick Out The Jams
Minutemen - Dr. Wu and Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love
Sonic Youth - Superstar

"Amazing Grace" by Brian Ferry [from his album of covers, Taxi, (1993)].

Also check out his latest album, Dylanesque, (2007).
