Track Of The Day: Rhoda Dakar - The Man Who Sold The World (Sunday Best Recordings)


There’s nothing like a great reggae/ska cover version to keep you company on the hottest day of the year so far, and this interpretation is right up there with Lulu’s I reckon. Rhoda Dakar, who was also responsible for reinventing Morrisey’s ‘Every Day Is Like Sunday’ wraps her formidable chops around Bowie’ classic and does it proper street justice. Wonderful voice, full of energy and great production. Right, that’s enough. It’s too hot to type.
