Lost Music Saloon presents:

It’s an “all covers” edition of the Saloon tonight! I enjoy a good cover song, but couldn’t give you a real good definition of what makes for a good cover song – – it’s a “I know it when I hear it” kind of thing, I guess. About half of my choices tonight are from 2020-21, with the others being old faves or new discoveries from the past. Some covers are such complete re-inventions of the original that they can’t be recognized until the chorus; others are fairly faithful renditions, but perhaps substitute a female vocal for the original male vocal (or vice versa); some of my fave covers retain the shape and melody of the original, but transpose it into an entirely different genre; still others speed it up, or slow it down, or thoroughly modernize an old tune. Anyway, I hope you find some good ones tonight.
