Wonderful Kate Bush Cover by Mike Scott (Blogger Shepherd)

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 06:10:00 GMT

I've been catching up on my podcast listening since I came back from holiday. Thanks to Coverville , I've come across a brilliant track by Mike Scott of the Waterboys. It's a cover of Kate Bush's "Why Should I love you?" from "The Red Shoes" . It's on heavy repeat on my iPod.

Wed, 30 Jul 2008 22:39:45 GMT

The latest Coverville podcast was The Kate Bush Cover Story. IMHO, the highlight was Mike Scott & The Waterboys’ cover of Why Should I Love You'1 On the other hand, I was dismayed to find that Kate’s cover of Rocket Man hasn’t improved since I first hated back in 1991.

Sat, 28 Jun 2008 13:33:51 GMT

The Late Bloomers: Mike Scott and John Tudor My goal in this series of articles about pitchers of the 1980s is to show that that decade’s reputation for mediocrity is undeserved. The two previous parts dealt with pitchers who had excellent careers, yet have been underappreciated. This article is about two players who very well may have garnered more attention had they been able to break into the majors...
