A quick update on Susanna And The Magical Orchestra from my earlier post this week.
A 2006 release of cover versions the like of which you have never heard.

In a similar way Stina Nordenstam deconstructed familiar songs on her brilliant cover version CD “People Are Strange”, Susanna does an equally superb job of totally reworking all the covers on this album beautifully.

I couldn’t sleep, and a tune popped into my head.

And I found it on YouTube, perfect.

It is more than just a tune though. From 1981, a total mix up (would we say mash-up now?) of musical genres… Pop, Rap, Disco, Funk, Punk, it is all in there.

What a great track.

P.S. thanks, and respect, to SkidVid for doing quality RIPs from old school VHS. Nice work.
