THE EIGHTIES YEARS: ROLLING STONES COVERS, PART THREE (THE LAST OF THE GOOD YEARS)
Posted on September 28th, 2007 by ekkoJust a little bit left . . .
“Black and Blue” (1976) A significantly underrated Stones album.
Hey Negrita-Tupac vs. The Rolling Stones (mash up)
Some Girls (1978)
Let There Be Rock/Miss You/Let There Be Rock-Drive-By Truckers
Before They Make Me Run-Patterson Hood
Beast of Burden-Alejandro Escoveda
“Tattoo You” (1981)
I’m sure there’s lots I missed–I didn’t even post every single one I own, just the highlights. If you know of some I missed, toss ‘em up in the comments!

nice! thanks. a few well known good ones that come to mind for me are Cat Power’s Satisfaction, Patti Smith’s Gimme Shelter, Iron & Wine and Calexico’s Wild Horses. I love the Prince Honky Tonk Woman in Part 2 – never would have seen it but it really works. Come to think of it though, Mick and Prince are similar in many ways……

Very good. I’d recommend the Etta James version of Miss You on her ‘Matriarch of the Blues’ CD which also contains a cracking version of Dylan’s ‘Gotta Serve Somebody’.
Thanks again.
