It’s Disco Friday :)

Got this link from a drummer friend. Disco Reimagined: A Track-By-Track Look At Foo Fighters’ New Covers and The Bee Gees’ Originals - American Songwriter

Makes me wish I had actually learned something about music or recording.

There was a bit of hype surrounding that. I don't see the "reimagined" part at all. Unless putting slightly more distorted guitars in a very faithful reproduction of those classics counts as "reimagined". Cover bands have been doing that for years. Hell, Tragedy (the band) did it better years before Grohl. But I guess all the aforementioned don't have the clout Grohl does.

Oh well.

I also wish I'd learned something about the music business!

I agree.

The tracks sound great, but they don't sound "reimagined."
