Judith Hill"},"content":{"rendered":"

“Why?” you may ask. Why should anyone try to cover AC\/DC? Straight Rock on the One. They mastered it, so why bother? I am always suspicious of these covers. Because it is difficult to do something new with classics.<\/p>\n

This one is a full success. Scary Pockets<\/a>, feat. Judith Hill<\/a> – You Shook Me All Night Long.<\/p>\n

Damn, actually, I should not have given the title away. You wouldn’t have recognised it at first. Stripped down drum kit and bass with a hint of vocals and organ, smoothly grooving you into the track.<\/p>\n

The chorus introduces the background singers as the syncopation flies left, right and center, where not much of the straight Rock of the original remains.<\/p>\n

Although the Australian original had even less instruments, this very funky rendition lives of space, breaks and carefully placed notes.<\/p>\n

Not so much a head banger but a head … something. Whatever you call what the organist Jack Conte is doing.<\/p>\n

I have this on repeat! Have a listen:<\/p>\n
