D'ANGELO / SHE'S ALWAYS IN MY HAIR !? I've been scrolling down this entire page to see somemone mention it. That has to be top 5 if not the best prince cover ever. I found that on vinyl for $3.00 in a record shop a few years back. "Thinking like the Keys on Prince's piano, we'll be just fine" | |

A bunch of electro and lo-fi artists got together and did an album called If I Was Prince. The Misty Dixon version of The Beautiful Ones makes my heart melt.
You can hear clips of them here- http://www.rexrecords.com...index.html Peaches does Sexy Dancer on it. I always thought she was kinda Princey, in a Dirty Mind kinda way. I'd have loved to have heard Jeff Buckley do some P. That WOULD have been special. "Prince don't hear Ravel when he wanna make love to his woman. He hears drums and shit." Miles Davis | |

I think that cover is boring, although I like Patti Smith! [Edited 11/29/04 22:20pm] | |

K's Choice : I could never take the place of your man Soulwax : Starfish & Coffee Soulwax : Pop life Was just going to mention Warren Zevon doing Raspberry Berret on David Letterman. Was it also on an album? Big Audio Dynamite did a great version of 1999. I know that's not exactly what you meant by kick ass musicians, but Mick Jones was in the Clash, so he kicks ass to me. I heard the Tonight Show band doing Lovesexy years ago. Check this song out at:

How about The Cross by the Blind Boys of Alabama?`You can't get much more respectable than these guys. It's on their cd Higher Ground.`
` Holy Cole has already been mentionned in connection to The Question of U. She also covered Purple Rain. Both covers are on the Bob Belden jazz Prince tribute. They are better than average in my opinion. Lots of my friends like them a lot.` | |
