I must confess that for whatever reason I totally missed this album when it was released; in fact, I had no idea it existed until last week's Listomania, when it came up in the context of great blues harp performances. I have since acquired the album, which is pretty spectacular overall; thanks for the tip, VR.
In any case, a coveted PowerPop No-Prize© will be awarded to the first reader who gleans its relevance to the theme of tomorrow's Weekend Essay Question.
Hint: It also has something to do with yesterday's post on "There She Goes." And if you guys get this, you're good.

That's a great take on a classic song. I'm a big fan of both Tonio K. and Peter Case. Will have to give the rest of the album a spin.

Da nada, Steve. You took the bait. Stones version is best.

Now that I think of it, the Floor Models used to do a medley of ":ove's Made a Fool of You" and "Not Fade Away" -- it was one of our big showstoppers. There's a live tape somewhere...

Unexpected cover versions.
Oh well, that's the best I can come up with.
