Brandi Carlile - Cover Songs, Volume 3: 2011-2013

Here's Volume 3 out of my six albums series of Brandi Carlile doing cover songs. I haven't gotten much feedback on the first two albums yet, but I hope you're enjoying them. As I said previously, she's got a fantastic voice, and a great taste in covers.

The songs on this album are more varied than on the previous one. That one was pretty much all classics. This one has some more unusual choices. But they're all good songs as well as good performances, or I wouldn't have included them.

In terms of sound quality, only three of the songs have been officially released. But I've tried hard to maintain high standards for this whole series, although that meant cutting some songs. That's the case here also.

These are the artists that did the original and/or most famous versions:

01 Me and Bobby McGee - Kris Kristofferson - Janis Joplin
02 He Stopped Loving Her Today - George Jones
03 O Holy Night - Adolphe Adam
04 The Chain - Fleetwood Mac
05 I've Got to Use My Imagination - Gladys Knight & the Pips
06 The Neverending Story - Limahl
07 Simple Man - Graham Nash
08 Girls Just Want to Have Fun - Cyndi Lauper
09 Murder in the City - Avett Brothers
10 Keep on the Sunny Side - Carter Family
11 I Can't Make You Love Me - Bonnie Raitt
12 Work Song - Hozier
13 Bring It On Home to Me - Sam Cooke
