just heard this for the first time, way prettier than anything i've heard from the meters. they did down by the river too if you're more into their usual funk:

that meters track sounds real quality. im really into the built 2 spill cortez the killer cover lately. i mean its just basically like 20 minutes of loud guitars whats not to like.

hehe Neil is probably the one note guitar solo kingMeters cover is great - why are there so many good soul covers of Neil? doesn't seem like he was too into that scene?

New ones appear all the time, but I thought I knew pretty much every big-name Neil cover done before The Bridge, at least. Somehow this one slipped by me until I bought the album at a record show today:

Not very good.

I think I actually prefer it to the original! An entire album of Neil songs in that style would get a bit much though.

The original's not a favourite, so that figures in. I actually really like their "Ticket to Ride" cover (same album--it was originally released as Offering, then re-released a few months later as Ticket to Ride when that became a minor hit).
No! Thanks--will order that for sure.
― clemenza, Sunday, 9 December 2018 22:56 (five years ago) link
Clancy's such a weird-ass song to have inspired so many period covers (I think like three or four besides the Carpenters one).
― The Greta Van Gerwig (C. Grisso/McCain), Sunday, 9 December 2018 23:00 (five years ago) link
Including--I could be wrong--the first Neil cover ever, Fever Tree's version of "Clancy" in 1968.
― clemenza, Sunday, 9 December 2018 23:22 (five years ago) link
Clancy fucking sucks wtf

there's also joni mitchell's 1967 radio recording of "sugar mountain" which is cool
featured here, along with many other covers mentioned itt: https://www.mixcloud.com/aquariumdrunkard/hello-mr-soul-neil-young-covers-1967-1978/

67? Wow that’s early. Maybe Neil “gave” it to her?
― calstars, Sunday, 9 December 2018 23:50 (five years ago) link
Maybe Fever Tree's was the first one to make it onto a record. If anyone knows one earlier (March 28, 1968), please post.
