Okay, I was never a big Ozzy fan. But these kids really over achieve. It also kind of shows that Ozzy really was a pretty good song writer even if I wasn't thrilled with where he took his songs...

I was searching the tube for good old Jerry Jeff Gonzo Outlaw country and found this single of a cover album by Steve Earl due out in August. Been a fan of the late great Jerry Jeff Walker most of my life. You could fill up 5 double albums of Jerry Jeff tune and I cant wait to see the tracklist. I will be picking this up as it hits amazon.

Here is Earls rendition of Gettin By not better but a nice tribute.

The legend Jammin in the Van, sick but still in a strong voice.

According to Eddie Trunck, Ozzy never wrote much and most of the writing was done by Bob Daisley. A lot of times it was without credit to Daisley.

So growing up, I wasn't a huge Beatles fan, but liked them okay. But lately, I've been playing covers of Come Together.

Here is the original for those who didn't grow up hearing it on the radio or hearing their parents playing it:

Come Together Original

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrVbawRPO7I

I previously posted this version as an example of how to make a song your own as opposed to just making a version that sounds like the original:

I never liked metal when I was in high school. I stuck to classic rock, progress rock, and a lot of late 60's psychedelic rock.

But this metal version is inspired. It's metal without being head banging the whole way through and stays true the acid tripiness of the original:

It's almost hard to imagine that the Leo version and the Morgan version are the same song.

Chief Pagan · 06-12-2022, 10:09 PM

This cover, is just a bit disturbing:

I like country music and Cody Jinx is who I have been listening to lately and heard his cover of Wish You Were Here and its excellent. So I started looking for more covers and found these Chris Cornell covers.

**srvy** · 07-11-2022, 11:57 PM

This is the Pink Floyd cover.

Marcellus · 07-12-2022, 08:18 AM

Very cool version of this song and you got to watch until the end. Wow.

**Gadzooks** · 07-12-2022, 07:26 PM

That was interesting...

**Buehler445** · 08-31-2022, 07:48 AM

Somehow this one got stuck in my head today. It is better than the Avenged Sevenfold version IMO. If you dig them they have a SHITLOAD of covers on YouTube.
