This mix from a couple years ago features four different versions of The Kinks' "Waterloo Sunset": covers by Cathy Dennis, Peter Bruntnell, and a live cover by Blur's Damon Albarn featuring the song's writer Ray Davies as well as the impeccable original by The Kinks.
The other featured song this week is the spiritual folk standard "I Am A Pilgrim", done by The Byrds, Johnny Cash and Fern Jones. Bob Dylan's "Going Going Gone" also repeats on this mix as a cover by Richard Hell.
Other stuff: The Rolling Stone's wise "You Can't Always Get What You Want", William DeVaughn's funky "Blood Is Thicker Than Water", Ice Cube's mellow "It Was A Good Day", Louis Armstrong & His Hot Five with the chipper "A Monday Date", The Clash's defiant "Garageland", the wistful "Talk Of The Town" by The Pretenders, PJ Harvey's tenacious "The Whores Hustle And The Hustlers Whore", Paul Westerberg's wry "Best Thing That Never Happened", a demo version of The Beatles' "It's Only Love", the sweet "Somebody New" by The Emotions (not the female disco group), and Joe Jackson's sardonic "It's Different For Girls".
