Cover vs. Original

Blue Suede Shoes

Even though both versions are great and even though Elvis Presley's cover seems to be a bit well more known,I still prefer to listen to Carl Perkin's original version instead.

Attention Taza: Carl perkins wrote this song. Elvis's version is the cover. - Sam Phillips, Memphis TN, United States, 24.07.2007

who could possibly cover elvis songs better than the king himself???just leave them alone!!! - taza, griffith, Australia, 21.06.2007

I have a late version (circa 1975?) by Carl Perkins. He sounds terrible. I know it is not fair to pick that instead of his early records, but sorry, that is the only one I know. On the other hand, Elvis totally belts it. GO King! - Rash, Chicago, United States, 23.02.2007
