Anyone else think that The Wire magazine's lcurrent cover story about cover versions is suspiciuously like a thread I started here a month or so back about covers that change DNA (can't remember the exact title and can't be arsed to go look for it)?
The contributors to that thread (who all came up with much better examples than the few miserable crumbs I laid out) at least ought to read the piece to see what's been nicked off them and then they should join hands in some kind of Shamanic Depressive Invocation of Holy Guardian Angel Fury and send The Wire scurrying back in time to that nasty paper and articles about Jazz-Polka syncopations...
I recommend the library.
Good article though
