Strawberry Switchblade - "Sunday Morning"
("Since Yesterday" 12" B-side)
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - "I'm Waiting For The Man"
("Messages" 10" B-side)
Tracey Thorn - "Femme Fatale"
(from 'A Distant Shore')
Echo & the Bunnymen - "Run Run Run (Live)"

R.E.M. - "There She Goes Again"
("Radio Free Europe" B-side, 1983 version)
The Primitives - "I'll Be Your Mirror"

Slightly off the topic of 'The Velvet Underground & Nico,', but I can't resist playing my favorite VU cover. Probably helps that I love the original to bits.

I always had a soft spot for Primitives b-sides and this one is no exception. Nice collection Brian.
Spent the weekend trying to put together a Velvets ICA for JC. I think after this weekend I may have it done. But have gone down the rabbit hole and am now starting on compiling a best of live versions which means revisiting all the bootlegs, the Matrix Tapes etc.
JTFL, A story only a lawyer could love. Ha! Did you get the new Spoon album yet?
Swede, Right with you there, especially the B-sides from the Lazy era. This one was a little later.
Drew, Looking forward to that ICA. Sounds like you are about to make it a whole lot more difficult for yourself. Best of luck.
Sunday Morning by James is also a fine version.
And big shout out to the OMD cover...one of my favourites as it took a great original and made it sound very contemporary at the time of its release.
and i just took a break to read Jonny's piece. Hilarious!!! He's a smart cookie is our country bass player....
Yep, that country lawyer is a renaissance man, JC.
