Excellent Cover of Tarkus


The Owl

Recommended Posts

This is from Jordan Rudess' solo/cover album "The Road Home" (a huge reccomendation). It has Wilson of Porcupine tree covering the vocals on the first part of the song, and Kip Winger ( who I am not to familiar with) doing the second half........

 

very awesome.

Ha!!!

 

Kip Winger's been around for a long time, so you must be a young'n.

 

Winger was an 80's hair band, that had some really good musicians, sold lots of record, had videos on MTV all day long, but got ABSOLUTELY NO RESPECT AT ALL!!!!...they were the butt of LOTS of jokes back then....I had a friend in college (back in '86) who'd never heard of 2.gif and in telling him about Geddy Lee (who he hadn't heard of) he jokingly asked me if Geddy was as good a bass player as Kip Winger...who really isn't all that bad.

 

Here's a SHORT (so you won't be reading for hours) wiki link which kinda tells all there is to tell.

For those of you buying the album......good job!

It is great....the whole freaking thing.....

Neil Morse's vocals covering Genesis is awesome as well.

The JR Medley gave is brilliant. Especially when he breaks into "And You And I". Gave me goosebumps.

Everyone is freaking out about this album. I've owned it since Christmas 2007. wink.gif laugh.gif

I got it around last May...

 

The JR original "Pieces of the Pii" is really good as well.
