I've made no secret that good covers are among my favorite things on Earth. Some covers though are about as fun as someone vomiting directly into your mouth. The Spinnerette cover of Devo's The Day My Baby Me a Surprize makes the horrendous No Doubt cover of Stand and Deliver seem like Cash's cover of Hurt. In fact, pretend I didn't tell you about this Spinnerette garbage and just listen to the Man in Black instead.
Or check this TV special version of Cash's cover of The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, with Jim Varney as an Army of Northern Virginia regular.

B/c I dislike Spinnerette? yeah, that will do it.

B/c I like Johnny Cash videos from the 1970s?
Can't begrudge Johnny Cash, but here's . . . Trail of Dead covering the same ditty. Indielicious.

Nice one B. I also like the Decemberists version, although I can't find it.
