Re: Song Covers
I just thought of another big one. Everyone (who grew up in Seattle) knows the Presidents' cover of Kick Out the Jams. But not many people know that it's a cover (I didn't), originally by Detroit band the MC5 (who were instrumental [pun sort of intended] in inventing punk rock and were also members of the White Panther Party, which was like the Black Panthers but for white people who couldn't join the Black Panthers). The Presidents changed the lyrics a lot too.

I can see why you like the cover by the Sonics, I'm also really glad you didn't post the cover with the chick singing it because it's HORRIBLE.
Did you here this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17auRAksrmI&feature=related It was kind of hilarious to me how different the song sounded when they covered it.
Re: Song Covers
I don't think I've ever heard that version. Sounds pretty bad.
I also don't like Led Zeppelin very much

Re: Song Covers
Aw man, that cover is waaay better than the original, which is a pretty boring song. It just needed to be sped up and paired with guttural, slimy vocals.

Re: Song Covers
Victor, you need to make that into a real image macro and then give it to me.

Damn near impossible to understand a word they're saying, but pretty cool nonetheless.
Also Immigrant Song is great, so's Lemon Song and of course Black Dog.
Re: Song Covers
I mostly appreciate how they sped it up. That song should've been faster from the beginning imo.
Last time I was in Olympia my friend Erica was doing embroidery on a kitchen towel. She had drawn a viking longship filled with dudes being sunk by a kraken, and around it had written "VALHALLA, I AM CLEANING."
Anywayz, here's another original and cover combo.
