  • Susanna Hoffs performs a cover of the Stone Poneys' "Different Drum" at the World Cafe Live in Philadelphia 10/4/2012. Linda Ronstadt sang the original a LONG time ago, kids. She looked great in a skirt too. Sorry about the crap-cam picture quality, but the audio makes it all worthwhile, right?

    Linda Ronstadt's original version has that characteristic power that Linda gave it.
    Susanna gives it that sweetness of her voice to her version.
    I must say that I love both renditions.
    If the Bangles in their purest form are pure rock, Susanna in her purest form is pure folk.
    Love them.

      Ronstadt did not do the "original version". But she made it a hit with the Stone Poneys in 1967. The song was written in 1964 by Michael Nesmith, of The Monkees fame. The first recording was by a bluegrass band called The Greenbriar Boys in 1966. The song was for some reason never recorded by The Monkees, although it was performer in one of their tv-shows. Nesmith made his own person on record in 1972.

      Yeah. And so many of his songs are just a little bit strange, witty and loaded with stuff that's easy to miss. For whatever the reason(s), he should have gone from the Monkees to much more success than he achieved.....if that's what he wanted. Maybe he did achieve success under his own terms. I kind of liken him to Frank Zappa in a way.

    Her performance is world class... The set up is life music at its purest , the basics are rehearsed but then there's a risqué element where unless the performance is stunning by competent confident musicians it could go belly up ...... It doesn't because her level of performance is so stunning ...
    She's like that, loves Music, loves performing , and has such a unique talent she is simply brilliant at what she does,
    Deserved much more credit than what she gets ...

    • @ericfreeman5795
      @ericfreeman5795 3 роки тому +5

      I totally agree. I have heard many covers by Susanna, and the Bangles, and her (their) covers always rival the original, and sometimes surpass it.
      "Hazy Shade of Winter" with Simon and Garfunkel reached N°13 on Billboard. The Bangles took it to N°2. "If She Knew What She Wants" the original by Jules Shear wasn't that great. The Bangles version is classic. The original demo of "Manic Monday" by Prince for Apollonia 6 didn't satisfy him. He thought the Bangles would do it better. They did. N°2.
      "Unconditional Love" by Cyndi Lauper, "The Look of Love" by Dusty Springfield (composed by Bacharach), "To Sir With Love" by Lulu, etc., Susanna's versions are excellent. And I personally prefer Susanna's covers, although many understandably are biased towards the originals.
      Sometimes with a skeleton band, Susanna sounds great. As a folk singer she is almost like a jazz musician. Each performance is unique.
      I think if the Bangles hadn't separated in 1989, they could have had 5 more years of chart topping success, and Susanna still could have done her solo projects on the side. And the Bangles would still have counted with Michael Steele, a very important cog in the Bangle machinery.
      Susanna, and the Bangles, are very underrated, and underappreciated, except by their hardcore fans. We know they're awsome. And many young girl musicians that have openly said that they were inspired by the Bangles.

      If you're here it's because you're watching Susanna. That says a lot.
      It's obvious that you are a hardcore Linda fan, and I respect that. I can't stand it when people insinuate that Atomic Kitten's version of "Eternal Flame" is "as good" as the Bangles' original, with all that autotune and artificial flavoring.
      But Atomic Kittens introduced a new generation to Susanna's music.
      And Susanna and Matthew Sweet, when they recorded "Different Drum", introduced a new generation to Linda Rondstadt.
      So I respect your loyalty to Linda, and she deserves it. She's awesome.
