I love covers and have long thought of doing a covers show. Here it is. With two songs of my beloved Tim Hardin covered. Reason to Believe by Ron Sexsmith and If I Were A Carpenter by Robert Plant.

Cocaine Blues, a rework by Troy Junius Arnall of the  traditional song Little Sadie. Here played and sung by Keith Richards.

Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman’s (Marie’s The Name) His Latest Flame was first recorded by Del Shannon, then Elvis made it his. It’s the only song on the show that is a medley
By The Smiths platin(Marie’s The Name) His Latest Flame/ Rusholme Ruffians playing it Live in London, 1986. The medley is part of The Smiths live album Rank.

The programme opens with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds performing Danny Dill and Marijohn Wilkin’s Long Black Veil. There’s also George Micheal covering Roxanne by The Police, Nouvelle Vague going for The Clash’s The Gun’s Of Brixton, Therapy? covering Diane by my adored Hüsker Dü and much more.
