Duran Duran - Crystal Ship


Shame that didn't make it on Stoned Immaculate. I know that was a late '90s alt rock thing but Duran Duran's cover is better than anything on it.

Fairport Convention - Sir Patrick Spens


(check out the fi-iiine looking black mama in the crowd at 2'25")

So good but man I would have liked to see Richard Thompson playing.
 
Rihanna- Diamonds and Talk that Talk
 
Nat Birchall Unity Ensemble - New World

 
Dua Lipa — Illusion (2024)


 
Dickey Betts & Great Southern - In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed. In memory of the Allman Brothers guitarist who passed away this week at the age of eighty.

Dan Toler has a solo at 4'37".

Coldcut - Stop This Crazy Thing



I knew it sounded familiar but I couldn't for the life of me place the background music. Thank goodness for whosampled.com.

Spoilered in case you want to try guessing and show me up.

Turns out Coldcut sampled Super Grit by Trouble Funk who sampled/interpolated Grieg's In the Hall of the Mountain King. Kills me that I couldn't make it out because it sounds so obvious now.
 
Everyone samples. At least Daft Punk didn’t make a big thing of it 😳

Adriano de Celentano - Prisencolinensinainciusol

"Ever since I started singing, I was very influenced by American music and everything Americans did. So at a certain point, because I like American slang—which, for a singer, is much easier to sing than Italian—I thought that I would write a song which would only have as its theme the inability to communicate. And to do this, I had to write a song where the lyrics didn't mean anything."

Kast in Dutch means closet/cabinet, so Outkast is a bit like coming out. Move away girls, this twink with his great music is all for us.
