BRING ME THE DEAD RINGER OF ALFREDO GARCIA!

More to do with the inspiration for the theme...'Dolly' - Microdisney.

Julie,

Aren't they

#3. SG...I LUUUURVE that!

You Tore Me Down - The Flamin' Groovies - They even used the same corduroy as those loveable moptops
There She Goes - The Las - Roger McGuinn should have taken out a patent on that sound but this is still a good record

If you're looking for CSNY clones, try America.

I think Charlie Reid is the spitting image of Craig Reid.

Proclaimers - Sunshine on Leith

for our Julie....

#5 Glen you need to be a bit more specific. America is a big place....

TUESDAY



'Won't Get Fleeced Again' - Pat McCollie & Baa Baa O'Riley

#7

North, South, Central, Latin...

Ryan Adams has records that sound a lot like different people at different times. But his most obvious Smiths / Mozz phase is found on the excellent:

#7 #9

Don't get me started on the pretentiousness of their name. A name that covers a continent, talent that wouldn't cover a pinhead.

#10

You'll have to be more specific

#7

Perhaps it's specific to the Pacific...

#12 that was odd! Anyway:

Ryan Adams - City Rain, City Streets

lovely biscuits this one ... gorge yourself ...

#15

When I punched America into the search box it asked me to be specific...

#8

Van Morrison - Comfort Ewe, from his Veedon Fleece album

Warren Zevon - Muttoneer

Nana Moussakaouri - And I Love Ewe So

Soundalikies

Crazy On You ~ Heart sounded like Jefferson Starship to me. Nancy Wilson or Grace Slick?
America & Neil Young ~ A Horse With No Name... again, confused.com.

'Hey! McLeod! Get offae mah Ewe!'

Play these two great songs back to back:

Ryan Bingham - The Weary Kind

Townes Van Zandt - Pancho and Lefty

The Gadsdens sound like a happier Antony and the Johnsons

The Gadsdens - 'The Sailor's Song' .

Beach boys baaarbraann
Wooly wooy
monster mash

More Bowie than Bowie


`No Promises` - Icehouse

#24 Good one Adam. What is that song ~ This Is Not America?

#22 That is a brilliant suggestion Julie, always think Antony benefits from being a collaborative artist if you see what I mean. But that does sound like a happier A&TJ

#6 #25 Why thank you Norrie...how kind of you!

At The Crossroads - Mott The Hoople - More than a shade of Dylan from the Thunderbuck Ram boys

#27 "You just can't live in Texas if you don't have a lot of soul"

Interestingly Dylan went on to record with the writer of that song....and it sounds so like Dylan it is uncanny. Not the only track on the lp with shades of Dylan.

Great suggestion Glen, but I would be amazed to hear it played.

Ian Hunter is still brilliant live.....

Band of Skulls - Death By Diamonds and Pearls

Like The White Stripes but there's nothing wrong with that is there? Reminds me of The Tubes at the start too.

Icehouse 'Hey Little Girl' is as late period Roxy as you can get.
Quiet Life 'Japan' ditto
Martin Fry was a blonde Bryan Ferry in looks and style.

J.O'B.

Baarbra Streisand singing Hello Dolly

Every time this Junior Campbell song comes on the radio I think for the opening minute "I know it's The Bee Gees but I can't remember what song" then all becomes clear!

Reflections Of My Life - Marmalade

;o)

Dutch band Shocking Blue's "Venus"was like karaoke Jefferson Airplane.The singer even looked like Grace Slick and the song reminds me of "Greasy Heart.I liked it though.Same goes for US Beatles clones Sir Douglas Quintet's "She's About a Mover"ripping of the Beatles "She's a Woman".Cheers,,Willie Bartke

#28 #33

That's two counts against Doug Sahm, but who hasn't copied Dylan or The Beatles at some point? He seems to have played with everybody from Hank Williams to The Grateful Dead. I like his Texas Tornados stuff.

I think it was Alladin Maclean who first pointed out the similarity between Lissie and Stevie Nicks/mid seventies Fleetwood Mac.

If Norrie doesn't wish to pursue the shout himself then I'd be happy to hear either:

Edge of Seventeen - Stevie Nicks

In Sleep - Lissie

If Alladin wants to have the shout, I'll give it a big 2nd.

regardez youse

henri

More than happy for you to submit that Henri! Ms nicks new album is pretty good as an aside.

Who will love a lad insane tra la la.......

A Day Like This - Elbow sounds awfy like Sting




DC

That's funny, Sting usually sounds like another part of the body

Ah, you can't tell your R's from your Wlbow

Wilbow??????

I thought it was the capital of a small province in Poland

I've banged on about Madeline Peyroux a lot recently and I like her stuff a lot but the ghost of Billie Holiday is ever present. If you want to hear "Lady Day"sings the Beatles then you could do worse than play Peyroux's lovely cover of McCartney's "Martha My Dear"or indeed Dylan's"I Threw it All Away".#33 ,As I said, I like "She's About a Mover",dont know much else apart from "Mendocino".Cheers Willie Bartke
