Same kinda thing for me too Mart. My band does mainly theatres which usually means a 3 month window of promotion and selling tickets before the gig happens. Subsequently so difficult to try and predict when will be the time to try and secure new dates. We have a bunch of gigs on our website ( some of which have been selling tickets) in which case if / when they are deferred hopefully the punters will still be able to attend the new dates. We are very fortunate to have a solid following who have been great with the situation so far, which is heartwarming in these difficult times.

They don't know - Kirsty McColl

Drown in my own tears - Ray Charles

Watermelon man - Herbie Hancock

Seem to remember an interview with Dionne Warwick where she implied she wasn't over the moon with Cilla nicking her tunes (Anyone who had a heart and Alfie) and having hits with them.

I actually prefer this to the original. He did a whole album called 'Rock Swings' which contained some great covers.

I actually thought of posting this too, but then thought the original surpasses the cover, but only by a smidgin. Both amazing performances though, good call.
