Here is the worst music genre ever and it's name is Smooth Jazz Pop Coverss

[gjones]

Bossa Nova covers of Cradle of Filth stuff, does nothing for me.

Don't get me started on Ukulele bands covering Slipnot tunes.

I think there's a new music genre - Smug Irony.

Some of richard cheeses stuff is brilliant, not the friends one you posted. How about this:

 

Bearing in mind I really like the original.

Music is a matter of personal taste, I like stuff from pretty much any genre but rap is spelled with a capital C

I only dislike 2 genres of music; Country _and_ Western.

Norman Brown for me is Smooth Jazz among a few other favourites . His guitar playing is way out there good. Most of the bass playing is pretty special on his albums. Sharay Reed has played on a few tracks. This is great. imo.

I think this is just superb in every way. Very funky smooth jazz from the man. The sax playing is so fantastic near the end.

If it enables decent musicians (you can't be a duffer playing jazz - smooth or any kind) to make a living, I'm fine with it. Don't care for it myself, but different strokes for different folks and all that.

I've just listened to the KITNO again and was in tears. Genius.

It's very funny 👍

The contrast between the original vocals and the jazz instruments is subtly brilliant, and for me actually highlights the vitriol.

The Stranglers did it first...

I'm sure there are plenty of murdered songs but here is one example of me liking this version over the original though that may be an age thing.

 

I thought that was the original?

This is a pointless thread.

Is it any more or less pointless than other thread on BC? Any thread about the bass or music in general in this forum surely is pointful.

How about this double whammy? A C&W cover of a rap tune, and widely credited erroneously to Phish and Les Claypool.

I love Hayseed Dixie too. 

I could easily waste an evening watching Richard Cheese and Hayseed Dixie videos on YouTube (and have done on several occasions)

Then top the evening off listening to a bit of this....
