"Go Now" was written in 1962 by songwriter Larry Banks, who gave it to his ex-wife to record a couple years later. Bessie Banks' version came out in early 1964 but it was The Moody Blues version later in the year that became a hit. A previous mix included her original recording, this mix has The Moody Blues version along with other covers by Gloria Jones and Cher.
"Hamrony" is a track from Elton John's 1973 album Goodbye Yellowbrick Road. This mix features covers by Diana Ross and Jesse Malin as well as the original.
One other song repeats this week: Bob Dylan's 1981 Shot Of Love outtake "You Changed My Life", with a more recent cover by Ivan & Alvosha.
Jay-Z's "Cashmere Thoughts" samples Bohannon's "Save Their Souls".
The rest: a stripped-down version of Jimmy Cliff's cover of Cat Stevens' "Wild World", the vocal track of The Clash's "Rock The Casbah", Eddie Kendricks' version of Seals & Croft's "Diamond Girl", Group Home's jazzy "Supa Star", the J Dilla-produced "You Can't Hold The Torch" by Busta Rhymes with Q-Tip and Chauncey Black, The Boswell Sisters' swinging "Wha'dja Do To Me?", the Joe Walsh-led "In The City" by The Eagles, Brook Benton's cover of Elton John's "Country Comfort", Marion Black's soulful "Go On Fool", Mark Kozelek's cover of Modest Mouse's "Float On" and a demo version of Big Star's "Blue Moon".
