COVER FRIDAY: Redemption Song performed by Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros - I am getting all ballady as the week draws to a close. That’s alright as you might just be hung over from yesterday’s holiday festivities. So here is a cover of one of my favorites ballads, the Bob Marley classic Redemption Song. We all tend to make judgments and compare various covers to the original. I make no statement here though, they were legends and they poured themselves into their craft. You can hear that in the music, and ever more so in its rawer form on this acoustic ballad.
