I'll never tire of posting this. In every objective way this is as terrible and inapprporiate a murdering as any Bob Marley song has ever had to suffer. It's slapdash and all over the shop. It's probably the least tuneful vocal performance either has ever put in (well Cash at least). But it warms the heart and puts a smile on the face and is somehow totally brilliant.

Cash and Strummer - Redemption Song

Sticking with The Stones

Under My Thumb live on Ready, Steady, Go (1966)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcgZIz0Fd-w

Turned into a Northern Soul classic (which the original almost is anyway) by Wayne Gibson
Also recorded in '66, not a hit until 1974 though.

Wasn't it The Guardian that printed a best fictional bands article, not long after we'd covered the subject on this forum? Think somebody there is nicking our ideas. Watch out for The Guardian's best music venues on the Isles Of Scilly!
