Neil Young covered by the "greatest guitarist you never heard of" (well of course ALL Fogbowsers have heard of Roy Buchanan, its the callow yoots that ain't got no respeck for their elders)
Original Neil: Original Neil Young off the album "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere"
Cover: Roy Buchanan on guitar-o-phone, Billy Price on Vocal-chords ("From Live At Town Hall, New York ,1974")
I probably should have contrasted Roy's studio version (from the album "You're Not Alone") if I'm pointing at Neil's studio version, but I just like the Billy Price vocals better than the Gary St. Clair vocals.

Please don't ask me how I've been getting off.
I usually eschew "greatest hits" albums, some are great, but most are just rehashes of not actual hits. But this one caught my eye the other day, not least because it was half price in the big-box store remainders bin.
The Very Best Of Manfred Mann's Earth Band
I glad it did, because they had this great cover of a classic by the Australian Band The Divinyls.
The original is here:

There's a lot of things that need to change. One specifically? Police brutality.
