Something for Thursday (Friday edition)

Yesterday was just…busy, folks. That’s all.

Anyway, one stalwart conversation starter that comes around social media with amazing regularity is naming one’s favorite cover song, or naming a cover song that’s better than the original. This one most definitely fills the bill for the former, in my eyes. I do not grant that it fills the latter…but this one is so good because it does something so amazing with the original, that there’s no need for this cover song to supplant the original at all.

So here, from the 1980s, are Rod Stewart and Jeff Beck covering Curtis Mayfield’s “People Get Ready”.
