They had some fun with the omens and portents, plus the reveal at the end.

Moose Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I bet Joan Baez never thought her song written to Bob Dylan would be covered like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmduck Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I think these girls are playing along to some GuitarHero type video game called Rocksmith, but unlike G-Hero, this one needs real instruments. The little girl nails the Chris Squire bass part which is pretty advanced. I've seen their version of a Slayer song and the little girl does the vocals too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 A cover of one of my favourite Dylan tracks Hurricane. This is by RocKwiz Orkestra, an Oz band and TV show. The two sisters on backing vocals are Vika and Linda Bull who are I believe are of Tongan heritage. All are talented musicians, the violinist is amazing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiltshire Rhino Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I know this is the best known version of this song but it's still a cover version. Plus it's a song I can listen to over and over again and I still love it. 2014 Challenged Cup Winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrone Shoelaces Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) There's a great live performance of that song on YouTube off a black and white old American tv show, I think the Ed Sullivan show. The camera studiously avoids Hilton Valentine on guitar once they realise he's obviously stoned. I saw them do this live the week before it came it in 1964, they were backing Chuck Berry on tour in Manchester. It was obviously a show stopper even just off one hearing. " Frijid Pink " do a good version, so that's a cover of a cover. Edited February 26, 2019 by Tyrone Shoelaces 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
