I've had some fun today with trying to pretend what it would sound like if some albums had been recorded by a different artist instead of the original performer. Here's what I've thought about where I'd think that the artist's sound and style could bring something interesting to the album:

Red House Painters performing Spirit of Eden by Talk Talk
Nico performing Ys by Joanna Newsom
The Stooges performing Suicide by Suicide
Death Grips performing My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy by Kanye West
Fennesz performing Ambient 1: Music for Airports by Brian Eno
Tom Waits performing King of the Delta Blues Singers by Robert Johnson
Kraftwerk performing Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles

Some of these might be more serious than others. Any thoughts about other possibilities?

Some that would be downright silly:

Elvis Presley - Tales From Topographic Oceans
Frank Sinatra - Ramones
Sex Pistols - Songs Of Leonard Cohen
Napalm Death - A Love Supreme

Guest

These would be fun:

Iron Maiden - Helplessness Blues (Fleet Foxes)
MGMT - Nevermind (Nirvana)
Slint - Grace (Jeff Buckley)

Napalm Death + Coltrane (?) = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-OVPIGokc8

As a result, would have a "lounge jazz" album. Just like Pat Boone sang Enter Sandman.

Catherine Wheel did such a good job with the song Wish You Were Here I wonder what they could do with the whole album? Maybe I'd actually like it. 😁

It would be really cool if The Flaming Lips performed "Dark Side of the Moon"!
