Pickled Egg Jukebox-Your Selections

[NewcastleFalcon]

As someone who really loves the pioneering original Blues artists its a bit of a stretch to Include Cream's cover of Crossroads, but their version was my introduction to the song and a tour de force for Cream. Robert Johnson original.

Possibly a contentious one but I present to you The Damned with Eloise.

Far be it from me with Todd Rundgren being one of "my" artists to put forward this better than original, but I have!
England Dan and John Ford Coley

I would have accepted that for England but we've already a "D"!
EDIT Did I misread that post or was it altered. Tell the truth!

Instead I present Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Blinded by the Light. Way better than the Springsteen original.

I just copied your bold style after posting to pick out England, I think it counts!

A couple of useful website links for such things.
Songfacts have a bit where you can list Artists by letter eg https://www.songfacts.com/browse/artists/f
Secondhandsongs have a bit where for any artist you can view songs they have covered eg https://secondhandsongs.com/artist/1868 ... nav-entity

Didn't know about this. The original wasn't who I thought it was...( a predecessor though in the shape of the Fantastic Elevators.... this raw version isn't bad at all, Fantastic elevators early version
