OK, Today post starts with a song I did included in my 90’s post from a week or two ago linked here. So you can hear the original there but I do love both of them! The theme for 30 day thingo is suppose to be cover superior of the original but I would say more peeps know the Barnett and Kelly at her MTV Unplugged show live version better which I’ve NOT included above, I’ve got recording studio version of CB & PK doing Charcoal Lane from the album’s 25th anniversary. Actually was recorded by Dan Luscombe (The Drones, The Blackeyed Susans etc.) at Tropical Fuck Storm Studios, before the band itself was even formed. Did you know? They named their own record label and recording studio it first. Anyway I’ve said before I love covers and I’ve got seven more as well, I don’t know if they’re superior? Maybe, you can let me know what you think below in the comment bit?
Cheers! 🙂
