http://www.radio4all.net/program/122963Podcast for Program: Sonic Café #498/Unexpected CoversFri, 04 Sep 2026 16:52:29 +0000240http://www.radio4all.net/program/122963Sonic Café with a funk cover of the Pink Floyd classic, I Wish You Were Here, done totally by AI, unexpected yes, but now part of our augmented reality, so hey welcome, I’m your host Scott Clark and this is episode 498. This time the Sonic Café spins up unexpected cover tunes so great, they’re scary. In this the tenth cover tune episode the Sonic Café’s nearly ten year history, which works out to be roughly one cover tune episode a year. So listen up, or you’ll ahh have to wait another year. So there’s that. Listen for unexpected covers, like Jessie Wagner breathing fresh soul into Solomon Burke 1961 hit, Cry to Me, and Billie Joe Armstrong cranks Tiffany’s, I Think We’re Alone Now into garage-rock glory. Acoustic magic arrives with Elle & Toni on Steely Dan’s ‘Dirty Work,’ while Carolyn Oates re-imagines Jethro Tull’s ‘Thick as a Brick.’ Plus: The Doughboys tackle The Moody Blues’ ‘Tuesday Afternoon,’ and Buddy Guy and Tracy Chapman dig deep into ‘Ain’t No Sunshine, plus many more. Between spins, we’ll drop in a few surprises — which U.S. states people most regret moving to, is your state on the list? The secret psychology of selling women’s shoes, and classic TV moments from Seinfeld and Mad Men. So let’s get to it, with Pearl Jam’s front man Eddie Vedder, with his unexpected cover of the 1982 English Beat song, this is Save It For Later, and as always we’re the Sonic Café.
