Lofty's Wall of Sound - What are you listening to?

[PloKoon13]

Esther Phillips' excellent cover of Gil Scott-Heron's 'Home Is Where The Hatred Is'

[Maksimov]

I like Fugazi and good mash ups, so when I heard about Wugazi, an album which mixes Fugazi songs with Wu Tang Clan vocals, I must admit that I was curious to hear what it sounded like, although I've never been a huge Wu Tang fan. It's not as good as I thought it might be, but it's an interesting album all the same.

Maksimov, you may well be very interested in Enter the Magical Mystery Chambers - a mashup of the Beatles and Wu-Tang Clan songs. It's absolutely brilliant. Here are a few numbers:

Taken from an absolutely classic album, I remember it from when it was first released. The title track was written by the great Alan Toussaint, so for your delectation, here's his version:

Sounds interesting. They've had to take that album offline due to legal reasons, though. I'll listen to these youtube links instead. I think it would've been a good album to have on my iPod(with Wugazi and Girl Talk)

Fiddling supergroup - absolutely in love with this even if it's a cover

[ThunderDan]

Nice one, Tim. Here's my favorite song of the moment:

This is for Phillip - John Tams (Hagman)

[Peckham Blue]

Currently listening to a live recording I've just downloaded by Agent Orange (nee Jesus and the Gospelf**kers) recorded at the Paradiso in Amsterdam in 1983. Blazing stuff.

[Maksimov]

Just came across this one:

Some mash ups are so obvious and even some of the more obvious ones don't work even half as well as this does. This is such a ridiculous idea that it just shouldn't work. AT ALL.

[Maksimov]

And then a very unlikely cover version:

A female duo with an acoustic guitar and an old organ playing Cock Sparrer? Sure, why not...? :D
