It’s okay to hog the covers.

The Jolly Boys play truly awesome mento music; there’s a short little video about them on their website that’s worth checking out.  Their album Great Expectation is made up entirely of covers and they’re all grooveable, extra thanks to Albert Minott’s vocals.  Some of my favorites (plus, I linked to the originals!):

“The Passenger” – originally Iggy Pop

“Rehab” – originally Amy Winehouse

“Hanging on the Telephone” – originally Blondie

“Riders on the Storm” – originally The Doors
