Great Covers

Ruthie Foster already had the 2nd best version of Ring of Fire. Now, she’s taking on Elvis. I’m not that big an Elvis fan, so I’ll just call this the best version.

That is a really good version of that song. Elvis’ version was not bad, but I think the original by Big Boy Crudup is still the best. The Beatles did a version that smoothed out the rough edges, which seems to miss the point of the song.

Elvis did a credible cover of Hound Dog, better than most of the other covers. But that song is owned by Big Mama Thornton and I doubt anyone will ever do a better version.
