emcee: i had no idea hey joe had so much confusion and drama over who actually wrote that song or that so many folks have covered it over the years. i always thought it was a hendrix original (far from it) see link: Hey Joe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

who knew that cher, patti smith covered it as well LOL.

good find!

Yep, everyone knows the Jimi version, but it's one of many. Here's another favorite --

Everyone knows this version:

Not everyone knows that the song first appeared on the Boss's first record:

Manfred Mann can't write songs that good!

I didn't remember he covered this till a couple of weeks ago.

Not to be a snob (just an oldie but a goodie) but I was clued into Bruce's original before Manfred Mann's.

In keeping with the thread, my being an old fart and Manfred Mann:

Bobby Zimmerman influenced many, many musical sensibilities and careers.

I had to think long on this, but then I realized theres a guy that had some really good song covers in the 60s and 70s that weren't all so well known. I like a lot of these covers, although being Elvis some of them may not be as unheard as others listed above:

and:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/c7CtqwyxHM0?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

and (of course), in keeping with one of my personal themes:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/6F3FFxacBl0?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

This song has been covered by an untold number of artists over the years. I assume that the royalties have Kris and his kin set for many a year.

Btw, you have to proof read every post when typing on an iPad... It makes your posts look drunk with the auto correct stuff.... That above post was bad

I have no problem with spell check programs since they as often right as I am wrong. I prefer a word wright over an algorithmic word right.

Great song. Performed/covered by many.

Who the hell is that on fiddle?

Simple, sweet and saucy.
