This one came up on my shuffle on Friday. This whole album of country covers of Elton & Bernie's is probably one of the more credible tribute albums I have in my collection. This is Lee Ann Womack with Honky Cat.

I want to bash some drums like Kate in her cover versions tour, Australian Made. God bless her..paying tribute to those who are no longer with us. I had said to my sisters that there was hardly anyone left from the press conference to promote the original tour. Greedy Smith, James Freud, Chrissy and Michael all gone..
I watch this quite often from Spicks and Specks. One of the better seasons I thought this year.

Olivia did a movie in the UK in 1970 called Toomorrow, i have a copy of it and also the soundtrack, an interesting time capsule much like Funny Things Happen Down Under.

I bought her updared memoir last year and took my time reading it. Then I found the cookbook not long ago. Thanks for the link to the other movie and I'll add it to my list.Originally posted by horrie hastings View Post

I like Olivia's version of this better than the original, which I have too.

I watched that on Youtube yesterday and found the whole album it came from, Once Upon a Time in California. Belinda Carlisle also covered Superstar but no-one can sing it like Colleen Hewett.Originally posted by horrie hastings View PostInteresting cover from Belinda Carlisle.

I have listened to snippets of some of the Belinda Carlisle covers on the new album but it hasn't quite grabbed me yet over all, will give it a listen in full sometime soon.Originally posted by redwhiteblue View Post

Colleen's version of Superstar back in 1971 was so raw, her vocals were perfect and i found it so much better than the Carpenters version ( which is still a good version ).
Colleen appeared on Rockwiz a while back and reprised Superstar, i love the smokiness in Colleen's voice in this version.

I listened to just a few of the snippets on itunes yesterday and whilst it is a lovely production, it didn't make me want to add it to my wishlist either. Colleen's music has stood the test of time and still holds up well.Originally posted by horrie hastings View Post

I note Belinda did a version of The Air That I Breathe but this one of KD Lang's is the best. I've had the Drag album for years and never get tired of it.
