O.k. Here's what's on top of my head now. I'll probally think of some more.



"No Expectations" by Johnny Cash

Johnny speed it up a bit. But I think it turned out real nice.


"Paint It, Black" by The Vines

Not a big Vines fan , but this heavy version made it cool to listen
to.

"Wild Horses" Not sure who sang it. But this girl a very beautiful voice.



There must be hundreds if not thousands of covers by our boys.

There seems to have been alot of different "tribute" albums to them lately I can't keep up.


"Picking on the Stones"

"Stones Country"

"Regae Stones"

&

Let's not forget the symphonic Stones..... That was um.......INTERESTING to say the least. hehe.......Some was great some was awful!


"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

Great

Think - The Little Killers
Satisfaction - Otis Redding
Connection - Ramblin' Jack Elliot


Strange

No Expectations - The Dirt Bombs...Builds from Expectations to Sympathy
Andre's Blues - The Greasy Chickens..To Andre Williams but built around Andrew's Blues

Not real good

Let's Spend The Night Together - Teddy Brown & The Discolettes

ROCKMAN

Rambling Jack did Connection? That does sound GREAT!

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

sympathy by gnr is a good cover in my opinion

-----------------------------------------------------
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

Yeah Ramblin' Jack is one of Keith's heroes so Keith would have lurved him covering Connection with slight country feel

Also has a beautiful cover of Tom Wait's - Pony

THE LONG RUN - Ramblin' Jack Elliot - Hightone RecordsHCD8107

ROCKMAN

1. Tumbling Dice - Johnny Copeland

I like listening to it now even more than the original...amazing! He died shortly afterwards. An incredible performance!

2. JJF - Johnny Winter

Raw and loud!

3. Satisfaction - Otis Redding

The Stones "covered his version it's so good! :-)

Didn't Frampton do a version of J.J.F live?

I heard it once , didn't do anything for me....

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

There was a album put out a few years back. I think it was Paint it Blue. It had artists doing Blues versions of Stones songs. There was a dude named ...I can not recall...bet someone lese knows. Maybe Youngblood?? Anyway he does a FANTASTIC version of "Moonlight Mile".

Paint it Blue it was...that's where the Copeland "Dice" one is from as well as Moonlight Mile. Really a great add to the collection. I never got the country or reggae one...anyone know if they're any good???

Who was the black guy who did a cover of "You Can't Always Get What You Want"?

Man that is a GREAT GREAT version!!!!!!!!

And what was cool was he added the "do da doo's " of Lou Reed's "Take A walk on the Wild Side"

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

4tylix if you are referring to "Stone Country" then IMO it was no good at all. The version srae run of the mill; just what you'd expect. Maybe a lukewarm rendition of "Dead Flowers" by Steve Earle. The worst I recall was that fool ..doing Hony Tonk Woman. Some little wannabe cowboy.

Marshall -I agree...I should've put that one up there.

Chelsea - I wasn't crazy about the singers on the country one...but the Stones do DO country better than 99% of the dudes in Nashville!

The Grateful Dead LAst Time

travis tritt is the guy I was trying to remember who butchered HTW.
4tylix you are so right - the Stones are a mean country band. Really no need for them to be covered by Country, Blues artists. They do it all themselves. Maybe reggae, but even there they are pretty tough.

The Black Crowes did a version of "Can't You Hear Me Knocking"

The Crowes are a very good rockin' band. and one of my favorites.

But this live boot version I heard didn't do the song that much justice.

It was just TOO LOUD....Do you know what I mean?

The guitar part was distorted bad!

Didn't have that bite of the Stones!



OH WOW! HOW IN THE WORLD COULD WE FORGET!

The Who did


"The Last time" which I think sucked

&

"Under My Thumb" which REALLY REALLY ROCKED!


Just think if Mick & Keith didn't make bail we would've had two more by
THE WHO!!

Wonder which ones they would have put out next?




"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

Wasn't this thread just up ?

Anyway, here are some of my favorites:

1) Joan Baez: No Expectations... just mournful, extremely impressive rendition.

2) Johnny Winter: Jumpin' Jack Flash... don't miss Johnny if he's on tour BTW, unbelieveable guitar talent.

3) Motley Crue: Street Fighting Man... Just love Mick Mars' grinding version of the lead guitar on this. Tommy Lee interviewed said they think they'll open at least once for the stones this tour, they're major fans and that would be one KNOCKOUT CONCERT!!! Would be nice if you could understand a few of the words Vince is singing on their SFM version, however!

Johnny Winter And - JJF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the Black Crowes encore versions of Happy, good times. That CYHMK-version is passable, but they've got the Stones better on Torn & Frayed and Tumbling Dice. It would be interesting to hear Marc Ford with Keith, probably be somewhere between Mick taylor and Ronnie. And then Rich Robinson on slide with Keith.
Where's my boot of Ronnie with the Crowes?

Best cover on Stones song "Empty Heart" is our cover We are "Continental Drift" [www.realmusic.ru]

Wasn't this a post just a couple weeks ago, best/worst covers?

Wild Horses by both Burrito Bros and The Sundays
2000 Man - KISS sung by Ace Frehley

Alot of people chose Britney's version of Satisfaction as the worst.

I think you mean Jewel. Yeah this girl has an AWESOME voice, great cover!!!!

Cheers,

Hey! What about Get off my Cloud Alexis Korner and keith .......mmmm nice!
......and....Under my thumb.....Steve Winwood [I think it was Blind Faith actually....sounds like Ginger on the drums]......I really like that version...
.Steve Winwoods voice is so amazing and his playing [keyboards/ guitar] too...........For all you Chuckhaters out there, maybe Steve could take over keyboards for the stones,and for all you Ronnie knockers he might even be able to fill Ronnies shoes as well!?!?!?!?!?

Satisfaction - The Residents.

Oily.
