I'm planning my semi-traditional all-covers program for this week. Any requests/recommendations?

The Reivers - Lazy Afternoon (Barbra Streisand)
The Black-Eyed Susans - Memories (Leonard Cohen)
Rowland S. Howard - Life's What You Make It (Talk Talk) or White Wedding (Billy Idol)
Cassandra Wilson - Last Train to Clarksville (Monkees) or Harvest Moon (Neil Young) - that whole record (New Moon Daughter) is a treasure trove of covers, actually

Jason Isbell just released a covers record that features songs from Georgian artists. I haven't heard anything from it, though, or even know what's on it, to be honest.

Desire - Boy

The covers Lingua Ignota released last year - Eminem's "Kim," Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game" - are harrowing re-interpretations in her own Diamanda Galas-cum-Swans style.

Cat Power's "Satisfaction," which leaves out the chorus?

Fairport Convention's BBC session version of "Suzanne"? Redoing it as a male/female duet was a great idea.

Grace Jones “warm leatherette”…. For no reason other than it’s the one I’ve been digging the last couple days.

"On Broadway" - Gary Numan. A great future shock cover of this classic tune.

A few of my favorite covers:

Magazine - "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)"
The Church - "Hiroshima Mon Amour"
Siouxsie and the Banshees - "Sea Breezes"
Midnight Oil - "Wharf Rat"

When I saw Kilbey do The Church Singles set last year, he explained that She Never Said sounds like it does because "I wanted to be John Foxx"

Currently digging The Antipodeans VS Icehouse: "Hey Little Girl"

But the download isn't out until Friday, the 29th. Just interviewed those gents last night. Interesting to see DJs moving into this pre-house style.
