Sterbus - Dirty Boy (Cardiacs cover)

[jiri006]

Hey Sterbus Guy,I love Your version.I must mention ,that I am learning that chords as mad,nearly there after 3/4of a year :) Thanks for the artwork...

[stoneagedinosaur]

splendid

[PROGFIRE63]

I don`t know the original but it is very,very beautiful!

[davidminnick]

This is wonderful!!!!

[sabalos]

I didn't realise this was on youtube, foolishly. Great version of maybe my favourite song - I was impressed that it manages to be almost as captivating as the original with very little seemingly to it.

[portoutboy]

One of the best covers on both albums! Loving the sax work replacing the guitars. Beautiful

[AntaresSI]

più la sento più mi piace......che classe, genialità e raffinatezza insieme.

[AntaresSI]

cavolo ma siete italiani? Vi ammiro, vi adoro anzi. Grandiosi!!!!!

[esirenbotdon]

Excellent version!! I love the original, but this is really lovely in it's own way- and more relaxing to listen to when I need a laid-back fix!! Well done....!

[todmorburgh]

Really great and original cover of a fantastic song, quite an acheivement. I particularly like your instrumentation from 6:15 onwards - lovely. Great pics too, wish I'd got to see them but alas discovered Cardiacs too late.

[Kidagn]

bloody brilliant! 

[jofcn]

magic

[jiri006]

Speachless,sterbus well done.obviously,not as good as real thing,but anyway,well done U..!!

[MartinfdeZ81]

Epic Cover,congrats!!!

[beaudeeley]

so damned good mate. I wasn't huge on this song before your version, now I 'get' it.

thank you!

[sterbus79]

@beaudeeley Thank you so much!!! Have you heard "anything I can't eat" also? I was too happy to see this version on the tribute cd!

[beaudeeley]

@sterbus79 why yes I have, excellent version of that one too! I love the cheeky little snippet of 'The Duck Roger..' right at the end and the harmonica solo :-)

I am also 'all over' "Chi ha ordinato gli spinaci", I have been loving it for a few months now & I have been meaning to give you a properly critical 'review' on the Maresnest (I'm 'Stitches' btw) but have been very busy so far this year. It's an absolute joy to listen to, Black Delivery is my fave, particularly the live version ;-)

[watchit69]

Thankyou Sterbus. Absolutely gorgeous version of this cover. Tim, your mind is strong, please find a way to come back to us. We all miss you too much.xx

[idiotjoy]

well done on a fab cover  !!!

[KeizerrO]

Thanks for covering this, this song deserves to be known by everyone.

[StoneageDinosaurs]

Well done Sterbus! (again)  Yes I am who you think I am. Regards from Stoney D from over there on the Mares Nest.

[sparkimages]

Praise him indeed. Real nice work, well done.

[sparkimages]

Praise him indeed. Real nice work, well done.

[sylvian82]

amazing version!!!!!!

[trainhitsboy]

Now, where can I find the tabs for this cover? :)

[DIOSANO]

I already download their album.....Incredible, thx for post

[Gondooz]

I concur - why this wasn't on the 'main' cd i'll never know... absolutely beautiful - must admit i came close to shedding a tear, but that song always does send a shiver up my spine...

[marktravelling]

I've just received my Tim Smith cd, and your cover is phenomenal. BRILLIANT! Well done you!!

The only shame is it's not on the main CD but only on the bonus cd, so not everyone will get to hear it. But I'll spread the word!

[sterbus79]

@marktravelling that's not a problem for me... I think every real Cardiacs aficionado has bought the deluxe version ;) Thanks for appreciating it.. check out also "anything I can't eat!"

[marktravelling]

@sterbus79 Oh, I just did! Absolutely LOVED it. And the Tiajuana brass section made me giggle!

[schlepworld]

smiles for miles.

[DIOSANO]

Great version, really emotional!!

[voodoolander]

This is an amazing version, love it. Good Work Sir!

[zenecarocks]

Totally surprising, this cover. Never expected that you could do that in this style and preserve the magic of the original. Thanks and congratulations.

Question: can you do 'ditzy scene' as well???

[DAVEdotST]

Beautiful and worthy. A great way to present the song.

[dijkmcc]

just finished listening to Anything I Cant Eat and i hav to say this is also an excellent cover!!! 'love it!!!

[jofcn]

Didn't think it was possible to cover a Cardiacs Song. But you did and wow.. what an amazing cover. Just beautiful.

[roztox]

What is left to say, a superb cover of the finest song in the entire universe...

[mrjollypantsjolly]

Absolutely marvellous. Brought tears to my eyes.

Pity you are so far away. I would give my right arn to do a Cardiacs tribute band, (I'm a drummer).

Can you do some more!!!!

[franzandreani]

It's hard to find someone who is able to play cardiacs with this love and intention, a great way of feel cardiac's spirit. VWonderful

[schlepworld]

Cardiacs for Lovers! Bravissimo

[ady24]

christ i thought Cardiacs would be impossible to cover.....but this is great...i'm sure the consultant and the ABC will salute you sir.

[dramaticuslionus]

This song is whipping round all the family's heads and so it should do.

Great work Sterbus and thanks for making so many happy by giving us a little more juice from that rich and milky pap we have suckled from for so long.

Praise him! Praise Tim! And wishing him all the best, a speedy recovery and bounteous joy!

Hello Sterbus - loved it. A beautiful tribute to a beautiful band. Very rare to hear such a befitting cover. Let's hope we can get to see the original band play this again soon. Pablo

[Wilseus]

To me, this is a bit like it would have sounded had it been a Mr and Mrs Smith and Mr Drake song.

[zombiegod]

Wowzer!!!!!!
