About ten or fifteen years ago it seemed like anyone who could muster even a slightly tuneful fart would get a queue of bands wanting to record a track on an album paying tribute to them. There were loads of dross ones, but there were also a fair few that were a bloody good listen.
My favourites:
Sweet Relief (Victoria Williams)
The Bridge (Neil Young)
Whore (Wire)
Give Me The Cure (er... The Cure)
Anyone else care to give praise to favourite tribute albums?
