Which Cover Tune....

Nazareth's "Turn On Your Receiver" covered by KISS and put on the (1975) album "Dressed To Kill"


Why....

Sung by drummer Peter Criss.  His raspy voice would sound killer on this tune.  Lyrically, the Nazareth tune would add another perspective to the other relationship dynamics found in the lyrics of other tunes on KISS' "Dressed to Kill" album. Plus, it fits the poppy upbeat vibe of the album as well. (IMHDO)

Thin Lizzy's "Sha La La" covered by Motorhead and put on the the (1979) album "Overkill"

Why...

Imagine Fast Eddie's tone... Lemmy's vocals... The double kick pattern is right up Phil's alley.

I have two examples

Step One: pick a song
Step Two: pick a band to cover that song
Step Three: What album by that band would that cover be a good fit?

May s the thread title makes more sense now?

I misunderstood… I thought you just wanted to know what cover songs we like.

End of My Daze by Trouble, covered by King’s X. Featured on Dogman.

Snowblind by Sabbath, covered by Alice In Chains. Featured on the album Dirt.

Here’s a very cute cover song done up with sweet class !

This would be awesome!

Cheap Trick's She's Tigh covered by KISS on Unmasked.

Queensryche's Queen Of The Reich by Helstar on Vampiro.

The Chase is Better than the Catch by Motörhead, covered by Rollins Band. Featured on the album Nice.

I edited my first two posts to include "why" I think the tune should be covered and put on that album.
If anyone cares to elaborate as well, go for it.  

Am curious to hear what has to said, or not.

Would you want King's X to omit 'At The" from the song title as well?

Next..

Steppenwolf's "The Pusher" covered by Megadeth and put on "Cryptic Writings".

Being MegaDave had a lot to say about his addiction on this album. It would (IMHDO) be "the other side of that same fence" caveat.

Ace. Since Unmasked is KISS' so called power pop album then a Cheap Trick cover should be appropriate.
