May 17, 2015

The debut performance of U2’s When Love Comes To Town took place in 1987 during the concert’s encore and BB King joined U2 to perform the song. On the next tour, 1992-93’s Zoo TV Tour, When Love Comes to Town did not debut until the second-last concert of the first leg in April, 1992. U2 would not perform the song for years after the fourth leg’s final show on August, 1993 in Dublin, although B.B. King continued to play the song at his live shows.[4]

Barbra Streisand’s Isolated Vocals For David Bowie’s Life On Mars

May 17, 2015

ButterFly is a studio album by Barbra Streisand, recorded and released in 1974. The credited producer is Streisand’s then-boyfriend Jon Peters, with arrangements by Tom Scott. The album contains contemporary material from a diverse selection of writers, as well as interpretations of standards. In a 1992 interview with Larry King, Streisand cited Butterfly as the least favorite of her albums.

On ButterFly Streisand covered the likes of Bob Marley (Guava Jelly) and Buck Owens (Crying Time). But it’s Streisand’s treatment of Bowie’s Life on Mars that is the standout here.
