The original:
I’m not a big fan of term ‘best’ but maybe the readers will appreciate this modest contribution. The whole album is really good. Especially the opening track (Omega).
Music is debatable but Barry Cibb and the Bee Gees have by far the the most impressive teeth in this thread. Better check it out to see whether the music bites.
I can recall pictures of my teeth in the old high school yearbooks. I should be the last one to tease anybody.

Just goes to show that photo post-processing people were quite capable of taking things too far well before Photoshop.
In the off-season I teach Spinning classes. I do a lot of themed classes and great cover songs are a regular go to. Here are a few good ones but I’ve got a huge list of favorites.
Fever Ray: Mercy Street (Peter Gabriel cover)
Hawksley Workman: Love Will Tear Us Apart Again (Joy Division cover)
Jonathan Coulton: Baby Got Back (Sir Mix Alot cover)
Junip: The Ghost of Tom Joad (Springsteen Cover)
Ki:Theory: Stand By Me (Ben E King Cover)
I spend my hours riding my rollers, trainer and DIY rowing machine. Love to grab your playlist or three. Qobuz, Tidal or Spotify would be awesome.
Hey @brett66, all my Spinning Class playlists (there are hundreds, I’ve been a Spinning instructor for 20+ years) are created in Itunes. I don’t make use of any streaming service and most of the music in my Itunes library I have burned lossless from CDs.
I was very much a fan back in those days, too, owning their first greatest hits album (with the yellow cover) on LP and prerecorded RtR tape. No one could sing a song of self-pity like the Bee Gees (or as many). ![]()

Surprised I forgot this one till now, not much of a fan of Johnny Cash, but this got my attention immediately. Johnny in his twilight years really makes this song powerful, not that the original was a slouch …
