Pete C Posted May 17, 2012 Report Posted May 17, 2012 Unless I missed it on the "master list" there isn't a thread for this. I had thought Lenny Kravitz's Greatest Hits cover was a direct knockoff of Al Green's Greatest Hits, but when I just looked I think it's only an oblique allusion. Quote
Spontooneous Posted May 17, 2012 Report Posted May 17, 2012 There are other covers based on Dylan's "Bringing It All Back Home," but this comedy record may have been the first: Quote
Jim R Posted May 17, 2012 Report Posted May 17, 2012 Unless I missed it on the "master list" there isn't a thread for this. I can recall a couple of previous threads, but only found one: Quote
Big Beat Steve Posted May 21, 2012 Report Posted May 21, 2012 Uh oh ... You started something there ... Would it be OK to post all the covers of the RUTLES' LPs? Only the tip of the iceberg ... Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted May 21, 2012 Report Posted May 21, 2012 Oh, interesting. WHich was first, I wonder? MG Quote
brownie Posted May 21, 2012 Report Posted May 21, 2012 The Jimmy Reed was first. Released in 1958. The Howlin Wolf came out four of five years later... Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted May 21, 2012 Report Posted May 21, 2012 The Jimmy Reed was first. Released in 1958. The Howlin Wolf came out four of five years later... Never saw the Reed sleeve before, but I had a suspicion that that might have been first. The Wolf sleeve is so well known though and the album is generally referred to as 'the rocking chair album'. It's funny that it's the imitator. MG Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 21, 2012 Report Posted June 21, 2012 Isn't there a Thelonious MOnk sleeve like this? WHich came first, I wonder? MG Quote
Steve Gray Posted June 22, 2012 Report Posted June 22, 2012 Isn't there a Thelonious MOnk sleeve like this? WHich came first, I wonder? MG The Monk sleeve was first by a long way but I am not too sure they are all that similar anyway. It has been pointed out before on this board that the Dylan sleeve was designed by Reid Miles. Quote
