Covers: Don’t Let Me Down (Beatles song)
“Don’t Let Me Down” by the Beatles with Billy Preston was the B-side of the 1969 “Get Back” single. It would certainly make my Beatles top 10 song list. Near the end of their career, the Beatles circled back to their rock and roll roots. It’s deceptively simple; I don’t think they could have done something so basic without all they went through. Sometimes, less is more.
Covers: Knock on Wood
“Knock on Wood” is a great 1966 record by Eddie Floyd. 1960s R&B didn’t get any better than this. Boxer Joe Frazier was one of the people who covered it!
Covers: Hesitation Blues
“Hesitation Blues” is over 100 years old and has been recorded many times. The version I know best is the Hot Tuna recording from 1969. Try the 2009 cover by Willie Nelson and Asleep at the Wheel and the live one by Tuba Skinny.
Covers: Farmer John
“Farmer John” was originally recorded by Don and Dewey in 1959. There have been lots of covers including versions by the Premiers in 1964, Neil Young in 1990 and Los Lobos on the new album of Los Angeles covers.
