And while we're on Jacques Brel Covers there's David Bowie's Port of Amsterdam:



and Terry Jack's Seasons in the Sun

Digressing ever so slightly;
With Steve Earle being mentioned by a couple of us, how about a 'Pettimores Moonshine Whiskey' t-shirt??

I wasn't going to post that because of the lyrics

Apologies in advance if this is stretching the acceptable bounds of CC, but this is Nina Gordon's rather delightful folk rendition of NWA's classic gangsta 'Straight Outta Compton' (lyrics not safe for work, minors, and others of a delicate disposition etc etc)




Also her version of Phil Collin's one more night,
