Very nice collection.

The Jazz and Conversation blog has a mp3 of Cassandra Wilson covering Hendrix's The Wind Cries Mary; from the Crossing Jordan soundtrack.

I have a request.

Jamie Callum covering Radiohead's "High & Dry".

Thanks. I love your show.

Cassandra Wilson's covers of "Crazy", originally Patsy Cline / "Last Train To Clarksville", originally The Monkees and "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry", originally Hank Williams are all worth a listen / considering.

Cowboy Junkies cover of "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" is great also.

All found on iTunes.

Your Coverville has become my addiction.

Thanks for who you are and what you do Brian.

I have a couple of request suggestions (in no particular order):

Filter's cover of "One" from the X-files soundtrack

Tori Amos' cover of "Heart of Gold" from her album StrangeLittleGirls

Flunk's cover of "Blue Monday" from the album "For sleepyheads only"

I also agree with Chuck's comment above, any cover of a Radiohead song is great.

Keep up the good work. Love the Coverville podcast.

Have you played Richard Thompson's version of Britany Spears [sic?] "Oops, I did it again"? I've only heard a small part of it he did during an interview.
