    THIS is the best cover ever.

    Watch it with the sound off, though.

    I was going to say that I prefer the version that Shane McGowan did for a Nike commercial back in the 90s but, having looked that up on youtube, the vocals don't bear any resemblance to what I remember.

    I still fondly remember the Mo-dettes cover of Paint It Black. Still got the 7" in the garage.

    Patti Smith - Hey Joe - this cover launched her career in 1974. I used to have this single which was backed by "Piss Factory' on the Mer label which I had bought down Newland rd in Rock In records.
