Favorite Tribute Band?

[kenposurf]

These guys played here recently..do not miss them if in your area..The Rave-Ups

[winston]

The Australian Pink Floyd Show is one of my fave's. They sound as good on any given night if not better than Pink Floyd (mostly because PF don't have all of their original members)

Here's a trailer for you. They are a great band.

The Rave-Ups are still around?!! Excellent! I have a CD of theirs from the early 90s--great stuff. When did they start doing Yardbirds tribute stuff?

I always liked Chris Isaak's take on Heart Full of Soul...

He does a pretty nice rendition of Solitary Man, too. Note the 12-string acoustic...

I think this is a killer version of Only the Lonely.

Great cover of this song!

[winston]

That's not really a cover Jeff since he did record that song in 1967. But what a great version though..............

[jps]

I didn't know that!

[tyarbrough]

Glen Burtnik from Styx (I know I know some o' yous hate Styx) :


And of course Back Pages!:

[winston]

Glen Burtnik sang that better live than even Paulie himself does now (IMO of course)................that was great. Thanks.

Glad you liked it! Shaw/Blades (Tommy Shaw from Styx and Jack Blades from Night Ranger) are one of my favorite vocal combos:

[Bighouse]

I'm deferring my opinion until after Kira gets her all-girl Beatles band going...
