Ooo well the live lounge was the big game changer I thought.
Out of space by Kasabian was excellent
Dizzy rascal covered that’s not my name
Separate to the live lounge
Ian Brown 2525
Dr and the medics spirit in the sky
Most recently
A support band called The illicits did the MOST excellent spine tingling cover of born slippy |

Joe Smooth V the style council; promised land.
Both The song's are not cover version if you know the history behind house music, They were released at the same time on propose if i remember rightly, But people just seem to click with the joe smooth version more as we were going though the second summer of love and acid house, And as a old acid casual myself can remember both of the tracks,
And the best cover version of them all by a mile is The Fine Young Cannibals - Suspicious Minds as originally done by Elvis and by 15 others |
