…I’m going to go so broke.
I just found CMH Records, a recording company that specializes in bluegrass cover albums. Covers of what, you may ask yourself…the answer turns out to be….well…freaking everything.
There’s the expected: String Cheese Incident, Phish
The sort of makes sense: Bruce Springsteen (Vol. 1 and 2), John Mayer, Counting Crows
The yes-we-are-hip: Modest Mouse, The White Stripes
The WTF were they smoking: Metallica, Guns-n-Roses
At the very least, I’ve got to get the Counting Crows album, and maybe one of the Springsteen’s for Betsy. I’m greatly tempted by the Metallica, though.
One reply on “If these are any good…”
I vote for the Metallica. Sometimes odd covers of opposing styles are surprisingly good (Gourds doing Snoop Dogg’s Gin & Juice). At the least it’ll be entertainment worthy and a great conversation starter. Besides, at least Metallica has long lyrics they can pick out of the songs.
