    Covers that 'made' the Original

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by lowdown

    There have been so many (very good) covers of this tune I wouldn't know where to start. But Herb's version is the swinging 60's for me.

    Incidentally, Herb Alpert starts a short tour tonight....at the age of 90!! :hi:

    :D

    Any other examples of covers doing something to the original that completely made it their own in a good way?

     

    I quite like this cover version of 'Lady Madonna' by Lenny White.

    A young Chaka Khan on vocals along with a young Marcus Miller on Bass. 

     

    They certainly made it their own...Some will say, in a good way, and I suspect some will say, in not such a good way:

    :D

    Thanks. I've forwarded that to Mrs Norris, who likes both ballet and The Who

     

    Glad to help, Norris ... 

     

    It might be worth pointing out that she won't see Pete and Roger swanning around wearing White tights and Cod pieces. Probably professional Ballet dancers performing to a score based around the music of Quadrophenia. 

    👍

    Heads up! Great VST deals spotted

    NI komplete 15 select Completely free

    Its split into 3 Editions. Ive only got one so far... but plan to get them all

     

    https://www.sweetwater.com/software/komplete-15-select

     

     

    I believe it's for an American address only. However, there is a way around it, and it works, my youngest boy tried it earlier and received the code.

    If you head on over to VI Control and look at post one:

    FREE Native Instruments Komplete 15 Select @sweetwater - for limited time | VI-CONTROL

     

    If you have not been to that forum before, they regularly update many of the free VSTi's and VST's that are released:

    It was started in 2012, so it might be worth jumping ahead a page or two... :D

    All VI Freebie contributions Here! | VI-CONTROL

     

    EDIT: My son just told me that he just received a £22.00 NI voucher as well from the above freebie (valid until 5th December).

    Although it seems it's limited as to what you can use it against. There is a NI sale on at present, so it is worth giving it a try if you see something that you fancy.

     

    "This e-voucher is valid on all Native Instruments software downloads of products with a respective minimum price of $49 available at the NI Online Shop. It is not valid on updates, upgrades, crossgrades, edu licenses, hardware, NKS partner products, or products that are part of a special offer".

    Audio Evolution was the best when I used it a few years ago. I used it to edit together the music for a school concert I was involved in.

    User friendly and good quality, probably even better now.

    One of my boys has this on his Tablet and it's very good. I think he paid a tenner for it, although he doesn't use it much now because he got Cubase and also Cubasis for when he is up and about.

    Also, he can exchange projects between Cubasis and Cubase.

     

    If you want Midi recording, both Cubasis and Audio Evolution are capable of this. I'm not sure the Fender App does Midi recording, but then again it is free and the other two are not.

    Maybe they plan to introduce it in a future update.
