Hail to the Hive!
Ok it's Tuesday once more and that means time for Three Tune Tuesday inspired by @ablaze and this week I've decided to go for some , shall we say, unexpected covers ( as in the title, bit of a giveaway really).
So first up one of my all time fave bands 'Bad Brains' the Rastafarian Punk Rockers with the occasional reggae influence. In this instance they are doing a cover of The Beatles ' Day Tripper' and it works beautifully. As a side note I actually did take Sir Paul McCartney scuba diving in Zanzibar many years ago and told him face to face this was my favourite version of their song, no offence meant or takenas it happens
enjoy!
I always try and include a Motorhead track whenever possible and their rendition of a Rolling Stones classic has always made me smile and was on my playlist at the Dive Shop Bar I used to have in the Philippines. I was a bit strict with tunes in the dive shop bar and was often complimented for providing an musical oasis in what was a karaoke, power ballad ,air supply, cleline dion wasteland of musical shite. ughhhh Anyway I digress here's Motorhead doing something a little out of their ordinary
And to finish up my trio of covers this week I've gone for FAith No More's amazing cover of Black Sabbath's 'War Pigs' and I have to say I've gone heavily down the early 90's rock rabbit hole of late since I started doing the #TTT and it's never failed to lift my spirits and so I can only hope it does the same for you....
and as always
