In a recent tribute, the magazine Spin presented 50 best covers made according to the opinion of the authors. Next Monday, 19/10 we will present from 7 to 9 pm in the emission of " Mix Grill " in Mind Radio - www.mindradio.gr the 30 songs - covers , according to my personal opinion, Leonidas' from Caravel and Stella's.
Some songs from the list of Spin may not even be known as covers, because of the enormous success they had. For example, how many of you know that the "Nothing compares to you" from Sinead O 'Connor is an adaptation of a composition of Prince ?
At the top of it we find the cover of Nirvana to "The Man who sold the world" of David Bowie , which appeared in the Unplugged album of the band at MTV. Do not forget that the album that resulted from this concert, has made incredible sales, perhaps because of the death of Cobain after a while.
In particular, we look below the first list of ten in Spin :
1. Nirvana, "The Man Who Sold The World"
Original by: David Bowie
2. Jimi Hendrix, "All Along the Watchtower"
Bob Dylan
3. Talking Heads, "Take Me to the River"
Al Green
4. Devo, "(Can't Get No) Satisfaction"
The Rolling Stones
5. Sinead O'Connor, "Nothing Compares 2 U"
Prince
6. Guns N 'Roses, "Knockin' on Heaven's Door"

7. The Zombies, "Summertime"
George Gershwin
8.Elvis Costello, "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace Love and Understanding"
