  • 76. Covers vs Originals - Part 4
    Jul 29 2024

    In these episodes, we aim to determine which type of song rules supreme: The Cover or The Original!

    Does writing the music and lyrics grant you immortality in having come up with the initial work? Or is it how you take those lyrics/music and develop it into something special that matters more?

    In our next battle of the ‘Covers vs Originals’ war, we take a look at 3 more covers chosen by ourselves and our listeners and discuss & debate whether it is better than the original.

    And so continues the game for many ‘Cover vs Original’ episodes to come to determine… which is better - the cover or the original?


    Going into Part 4… Covers: 14 Originals: 10


    This episode:

    1. ‘Hound Dog’ - Elvis Presley
    2. I Only Wanna Be With You - Volbeat
    3. Simple Man - Deftones

    Jul 15 2024

    Following the success of ‘Californication’ and its corresponding world tour, the Red Hot Chili Peppers were in a good space when they began writing ‘By The Way’. John Frusciante was said to be back to his normal self and brimming with confidence as he co-wrote and collaborated with Anthony Kiedis.

The versatility and willingness to try out new styles opened them up to a much wider audience and cemented their legacy as one of the world’s leading Rock bands at the start of the 2000s.

  • 74. 'Aja' - Steely Dan (1977)
    Jul 1 2024

    Delving into longer and more sophisticated music, Donald Fagen and Walter Becker experimented with various band lineups for each song on ‘Aja’ to craft and perfect their Jazz, Pop, Rock hybrid of an album. Mixing their own songwriting skills with the jazzy prowess of the likes of Wayne Shorter and Tom Scott legitimised Jazz in Rock and marked a significant moment in the relationship between the two.
