Flour Power

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you might have noticed how I like music covers. That’s why The King’s Head is probably my favourite pub in Galway on Mondays and Tuesdays. From 10pm to around midnight there’s usually a gig featuring two guys with acoustic guitars, playing covers of well-know songs.

Fred & James are one of the duos, playing Mondays, and their version of Galway Girl is the one I mentioned before, with the slightly altered lyrics. This time I managed to get a much better recording of it:

They also play this great version of Hotel California, ending with an awesome solo. Which I’ve been meaning to record for a long time now, and it’s finally here:

Enjoy the videos, and see you at The King’s Head one of these Mondays!

On the 19th of July, Coldplay performed a “Stripped” acoustic show for iheartradio at the Capitol Records Studio in Hollywood. The intimate show is now available to watch online. The track list:

• Lost
• Strawberry Swing
• Viva La Vida
• Death Will Never Conquer
• Billie Jean

I especially liked the Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean cover, but you should already know that I love covers.
