About this episode
One of the ways to win a pro wrestling match is to go for the cover, or pin your opponent's shoulders to the mat for three seconds. It's an essential element of the sport, just as the cover song is an essential part of music. On this episode, Andrew and returning guest Andy LaBarre go for the cover, so to speak, and play a bunch of great cover songs from over the years. Artists played include Charles Bradley, Dolly Parton, D'Angelo, William Shatner, Eddie Hazel, Chris Cornell, The Power Station, Heart, and many more. The songs on this episode may not be originals, but they can still keep you down for the three count.
