Unfortunately, not much out there from him on you tube, but here's one to give an idea of how he takes a song and makes it his own, while still respecting the original.

"House of the Rising Sun"

Wow...that was awesome!

Ann Beretta - Just What I Needed

One of my favorite punk bands from the past. Great live shows! Every album they would include a cover.

Plus I haven't heard anyone mention Propagandhi in a long time Albert.

Fricking love this! 1st time I ever heard it was during the end credits of 50 First Dates and I got goosebumps, I made it a goal to find this song, so I immediately went and got the soundtrack, This was also played at my wedding....still gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.....just beautiful.
