Link Ch. 7 – Coverville Podcast

Updated October 2014

I’ve been listening to Coverville nearly 10 years now and continue to be amazed at the fascinating covers host Brian Ibbott comes up with.  Here are links to several classic episodes from over the years:

  • Episode 1048 – The Tenth Anniversary Show
    Celebrating 10 years of covers on the Coverville podcast
  • Coverville 1000: Live From Nerdtacular 2013
    A recording of the concert celebrating Coverville’s 1000th episode, including John Anealio doing his original songs “Nerds Arguing About Spaceships” and “George R.R. Martin Is Not Your Bitch.”
  • The Joshua Tree Album Cover
    Covers of every song from U2’s classic album The Joshua Tree.  Each song interpreted by a different artist in a different style.
  • The Wilson Pickett Cover Story
    An episode devoted to covers of soul legend Wilson Pickett.
  • Coverville Hall of Fame 2009
    Every year Brian Ibbott has listeners vote for there favorite covers.  This voting produces a top 40 cover countdown that gets posted every December.  But some songs were coming to dominate the countdown year after year, and so starting in 2009 Brian started retiring the most popular covers by placing them in the Coverville Hall of Fame.  This episode has classics such as William Shatner’s cover of Pulp’s “Common People” as well as the Polyphonic Spree’s cover of Nirvana’s “Lithium.”
