Re: Round 1: "Higher Ground" vs "Whole Wide World"
Tough call. For me the strings don't quite feel right on Whole Wide World. Also, why doesn't that singer let his band dance, too? But it's a great song and a good cover. The cut on ghostrunner's Spotify list is a bit different, might want to have a look at that, 82/voters.
Ultimately I couldn't deny Flea's bass.

I was unaware of the Whole Wide World song. Like it a lot.

I knew it was something less credible than digging through vinyl in apple crates (but that is what I'll tell everyone here in Portland I did), so google helped me remember where I found it:stlouie_lipp wrote:I was unaware of the Whole Wide World song. Like it a lot.
I was also interested in that one guy's guitar. I hadn't seen anything like it, and was hoping it was a Frankenstein situation with the pickup and the Bigsby whammy on an acoustic. Still cool, but it's a Gretsch model.

Higher ground intro reminds me of the Seinfeld intro.
