I didn't include bands I'd never heard or couldn't find a wikipedia page about who had some shaky live footage of some them playing a cover in some broken down pub, I should note. Or any youtube bass covers or whatever the hell else. I did include two live-only covers from known bands.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Pex Lives!

Very truckly. I dig it.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
