And on the fifth day of this crud, I have the worst of this crud.
The good news being that, soon, I’ll be on the other side of it. The bad news being that I haven’t slept all week. Though I did find a nap today.
And then I spent most of the day complaining about my head: my head cold, my sinuses, my headaches and all. It just goes on and on.
So some music then, because why not? Earth, Wind & Fire covers on this edition of YouTube Cover Theater. This guy personifies the concept, claiming over 175 million YouTube views of his various videos, Igor Presnyakov covers Let’s Groove Tonight:
Tyler Robinson covers September:
This is crazy good, and sometime soon you’ll be telling people you knew Emily Elbert way back when:
High school jazz bands better be covering EWF. Bass player’s got chops, too:
You get a lot of drum solos and recordings of bass solos and backing tracks when you search for Earth, Wind & Fire covers. But you also get the criminally under-viewed Allen W. Davis:
And then I spent 20 minutes listening to Davis’ other stuff. Fascinating.
Couldn’t pick just one Earth, Wind & Fire song to end with, so here’s the Greatest Hits, Volume 1, off a vinyl transfer, as it should be:
Have a great weekend!
