Discussing covers with my friend Jeff:

autographedcat: I have an entire album consiting of bluegrass covers of AC/DC songs

JTW RCCC: Yeah, I've heard Hayseed Dixie before :-)

autographedcat: :-)

JTW RCCC: Dolly Parton's cover of "Shine" infinitely improves on the original

autographedcat: yes, it does

autographedcat: i found her cover of Stairway to Heaven less essential, though it was a competant cover

JTW RCCC: And, of course, Trent Reznor will never be able to play "Hurt" again thanks to Johnny Cash

autographedcat: heh.

autographedcat: I always wanted to hear Trent Reznor cover "Afternoon Delight" by the Starland Vocal Band

Also, is the "Shine" you are saying Dolly covered the one by Mike Oldfield and Jon Anderson? If so, that is something I'd love to hear.

No, it's the song by Collective Soul from a few years back. Worth listening to, though. (Both versions).
