The Bluemoon Song Cup 2024 - P197 - R2/M93 - Snow Patrol (Chasing Cars) v George Thorogood (Cocaine Blues)

[NZBlue]

So recorded in 1969 :;)

You will see 1969 on the LHS. Exactly what that refers to I have no idea but if it were down to me I'd call it OK (just!)

That's pretty cool you have that, and as you can see from my vote, it was OK for me too.

Just noting what wiki was conveying as I was curious about this in relation to Dion's version, and BM85 never specified released or recorded either in "from the 1960s" either.

I prefer the Dion version, which was actually released in the 1960's in August 1968, unlike the Marvin Gaye version that was released with his album That's the Way Love Is on Jan 8, 1970.

I prefer Marvin's version by a country mile.

Dion's is too high a tempo, IMHO.

Mrs Vienna remembers having that.

Not that copy, of course.

She might have had this copy- the picture came via Google, not from my collection:-)
