Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Family Recordings proudly presents an inspired double disc set that is part musical education and part expose! Uncovered reveals 40 original tracks made popular by some of contemporary musics brightest stars that many are unaware are cover versions! Uncovered showcases a deliberately varied and genre busting track list, revealing the lesser-known versions of tracks made famous by the likes of The Beatles, The Temptations, Kylie and Robbie Williams!
Included is the first ever Motown single - Barrett Strongs 'Money (That's What I Want)' which was covered by The Beatles, Jorge Ben's Taj Mahal (ripped off by Rod Stewart for 'Do You Think I'm Sexy?' and settled in court as a result) and World Party's 'She's The One' (for which Karl Wallinger is no doubt very grateful to Robbie Williams). A heavy dose of Soul is included with tracks from Judy Street (Soft Cell's 'What'), The Supremes' Nathan Jones (later hacked by Bananarama), The Miracles' 'Love Machine' (made famous by the boys of Wham!) and The Delphonics' 'Ready Or Not' (The Fugees). A musical education indeed!
