Has anyone heard the Mendoza Line or Rasputina versions of Fox in the Snow? Here is what albums they are on: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&uid=10:40:15|PM&sql=H414859 A flick thru the Sinister archives reveals that the Mendoza Line cover is like "early Dylan singing Fox in the Snow" (Whiddon, 1999). And apparently Melora from Rasputina replaced Isobel for some shows on the last US tour (Almeh, 2002; Lisa, 2002; May; 2002).
To be honest, I've not heard either of those. I have to point out, though, that the Fox In The Snow cover by Kiki & Herb just *has* to be the best one. I mean, not only does it have a gospel choir kicking in with the backing vocals, it's got a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale in the middle too. Classic!
Casarotto (2003) described Eileen (2003) as having "a light but sure touch that attracts and sculpts emotion while never being remotely twee". I agree.
Eileen is a great poster. When I want a reliable critical viewpoint, I always trust what big camp bald men have to say, you know.
Ken (2003) is a helpful chap isn't he? I only wish I could make use of all the helpful information and attend all that bowling, picnic and football action. Have fun everybody.
He got the details wrong, though! If you're going to Finsbury Park station, use the Victoria Line. The Picadilly Line is awfully slow, and the only good thing about it is the wall tiling on the station platforms. Changing onto the Victoria at Kings Cross is a much better idea, even though you'll have to walk down the escalator. Oh, and if your train is going to Paddington or Marylebone, the best route is via the Bakerloo and change at Oxford Circus.
