Shut the door and cover me...

I don't mean to harp on this, but I really do like a good cover song, especially live. Say what you will about hippie band Phish, but they were/are (are they together or not? I can't keep track) excellent at covering other artists' material.

This week I bring you the first installment of songs I'd like to see covered, covered more often, or better covered. The inspiration for this comes from Saturday's Eagles of Death Metal show up in Baltimore (review forthcoming). The EODM opted to cover "Taking Care of Business" by Bachman Turner Overdrive, a song that in my opinion needs no more attention than it already receives. You know who should cover Taking Care of Business? Official cover bands. That's their territory. Leave something for the Dewey Beach bands, EODM.

I am painfully aware that Toad the Wet Sprocket's Glen Phillips and the Greenskeepers are covering this next one, but I'd like to see a good cover of this HL&TN hit.
