She does a pretty damn good cover of Echo Beach on the album.

It was used for that Echo Beach soap on itv last year..

Mine would be:

Urge Overkill - Girl, You'll be a Woman Soon (Neil Diamond)

And, Duran Duran covers album called 'Thank You' is great too.

Not only an amazing version of Nina Simones Feeling Good but for my money the best album (about to be) released for years.

Joe Bonamassa - The Ballad of John Henry

released on 23rd February and currently getting played on Nicky Hornes show on Planet Rock weekdays 8.00 till 12.00.

I have no connection with any of the afore mentioned I just think he's a huge talent.

A new one that I've been hammering recently

Can be heard here

Basically the Easy Star All Stars, who Reggae Dub versions of famous albums so far they've done

Radiohead- Ok Computer
The Beatles- Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club

I'd recommend checking out the link above at least.

I'll second that!

Their Bohemian Rhapsody is also a work of art.
