    I had a listen with some trepidation, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's a good cover, although I would prefer the original by Don Henley.
    Quite a faithful cover. Your man even sounds like Henley. I noticed though that the old dead-head sticker on the Cadillac has had a Black Flag one stuck over it. ;)

    edit: proper order I meant to say as TGD were crap.

    This contest is an eye opener for me. Lots of well known songs that I always just assumed were the original versions, but not so.


    Bonnie Tyler - The Best
    Bob Dylan - Hurricane ... does anyone know who covered this?
    Wilbert Harrison - Let's Work Together ... and don't forget to boogie :cool:

    Wilbert Harrison - Let's Work Together Vs The Crickets - I Fought The Law. I thought the original versions were by Canned Heat and The Booby Fuller Four, respectively, only to discover they went back further! Tough to choose between as well.
