ah, that didn't work, general gist is.... The Prodigy, the Charlatans and Maximo Park are among artists who have given their backing to the first Independents Day, scheduled for July 4 and organised by UK trade body AIM. More big names are expected to be unveiled today as the lineup is finalised. Each will contribute covers of tracks originally released on independent labels to a new double album released on July 4 to tie in with a number of other profile-raising events, including a five-part series on Channel 4, an eBay auction of memorabilia and a specially organised gig. On the first CD, big-name artists will cover well-known independent releases such as PIL's Public Image, Ghost Town by the Specials and Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division. The second disc will contain music by a number of new, up and coming acts chosen by the same artists. The tracks announced so far include: Tom Smith (from Editors) Bonny (originally by Prefab Sprout); Feeder Public Image (PiL); Maximo Park Was There Anything I Can Do? (The Go-Betweens); Prodigy Ghost Town (The Specials); Cribs Bastards of Young (The Replacements); Jose Gonzales Love Will Tear Us Apart (Joy Division); Futureheads With Every Heartbeat (Robyn); Jack Peņate Dub Be Good to Me (Beats International); Rodrigo y Gabriela Orion (Metallica); British Sea Power Tug Boat (Galaxie 500); The Charlatans Murder (New Order); Infadels Steady As She Goes (The Raconteurs) | ||

Noticed that this morning. Typical Guardian, can't even get the title right. Notice also that BSP's cover is Tug Boat which already appeared on Stop Me If You Think That You've Heard This One Before. | ||
