CD Cover

Wildly acclaimed Brooklyn songwriter Joan As Police Woman returns with her new album Cover Two. This is Joan’s second album re-working songs by other artists and again, Joan makes some very interesting choices.

THIS MONTH’S COVERMOUNT CD is Cover Me: The Springsteen Songbook – 15 songs that inspired our cover star. John Lee Hooker, Mitch Ryder, The Contours, Bo Diddley, The Searchers and lots more Boss fuel!

Between 2003 and 2010, Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree) released six CD singles, each featuring a cover version backed with a new original song. Titled, appropriately enough, Cover I through Cover VI, the first of these singles was significant because it was the first release issued under his own name. All of these were almost ridiculously limited. The titles were all compiled before - when Cover VI was released, the other singles were included in a lavishly designed box - but this marks the first time all 12 tracks have been widely available. The music presented here is performed completely solo save for chamber and orchestral elements on some tracks that were added on later, and showcases a different, more intimate side of Wilson…
