The Hardcore Show #3


Today, it's covers! Yes, after realizing that each of my past shows included a couple of cover songs, I decided to dedicate a whole show to them. I know there's a whole lot of other tunes that I should have included here, but because I'm trying to keep each show to just 10 songs, I had to to leave some of them out. I'm sure another cover show is in the future.

Today's show finally introduces Hüsker Dü into the mix with their great version of 'Love is All Around,' the theme to the 70s sit-com The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and the song 'Eight Miles High,' originally recorded by the Byrds. This recording of EMH has some quality issues. It seems to hae been mixed with its levels pushed a little too high. But you can still hear the power and ferocity of the band's take on the hippie original.
