Here is 17 minutes of guitar heaven from the Dave Matthews Band featuring Warren Haynes (Gov't Mule and The Allman Brothers) performing Neil Young's "Cortez the Killer"...

Mick @Newportnobby might like this as well as John @Trainfish .

Interesting, Tim @Moonglum  :hmmm:
That's one of my all time favourite Neil Young tracks. It's different but, as I often say about music, unless it's a radically different version, I always prefer the 'originals'..
Witness 'House of the rising sun' from the Animals to the Frijid Pink effort, and Melanie's 'Ruby Tuesday' as opposed to the Stones

Zuma and Harvest are my two favourite Neil
Young albums.
The years have been good to me, it was the weekends that did the damage.

I guess that if you really like the original version Mike @Newportnobby , a cover version may or may not work for you. My very first single was "House of the Rising Sun" by Frijid Pink and I had never heard The Animal's version. Likewise, I had CCS's version of "Whole Lotta Love" as a single before I heard Led Zeppelin's original version and for a while preferred it! This might split divisions but I thought it was pretty good. Here is Gov't Mule's cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Gold Dust Woman", featuring Grace Potter...

Not so sure about Grace Potter's other work though.

Ooh, fighting words. ;)

When we first moved into a posh new council house in 1964, the next door neighbour's son played the Animals over and over.

I think at the time, it was the longest single ever played on radio!

Anyway, ever budding guitarist learns to play that, even today. I know I still play it!

And as for Led Zeppelin's Whole lotta love being the best, I ain't even going there. :beers:
Vision over visibility. Bono, U2.

Just for the record (boom-boom) I was only 13 years old in 1970!

Tim
