  • What will acoustic funk favorite Christie Lenee perform from '68?

WMNF's Flee is straying from his typical tribute show tradition. Instead of having a diverse lineup of local acts honor a single artist he has asked all the bands listed below to cover a tune from 1968 for the community radio station's upcoming New Year's Eve bash.

Songs I would like to hear from that year? How about killer renditions of The Rolling Stones' "Factory Girl," The Beatles' "Happiness Is a Warm Gun," Otis Redding's "Hard to Handle," Loretta Lynn's "Fist City" and The Velvet Underground's "White Light/White Heat." Seriously, that would be a rad setlist!

Rewind: The WMNF Tribute to the Music and Songs of 1968 w/ Boon/Christie Lenee (pictured)/Crabgrass Cowboys/Ted Lukas/Johnny Zoom/Lush Progress/Midnight Bowler's League/Rancid Polecats/Roppongi's Ace/Talk to Mark, Wed., Dec. 31, Skipper's Smokehouse, Tampa.

I can't wait to hear the Polecat's resurrect bubblegum pop by way of punk! I'm scared and yet curious.

my favorite song from 1968 is "sister ray" by the velvet underground and I also really like "you must be a witch" by the lollipop shoppe. I don't want anyone to cover those songs though.

One of my favorite and from a group that was very underated was the Classics Four Song, "Everyday with you Girl". Really a beautiful and mellow song characteristic of some of the more mellow music of that time.

There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game.

The M3i Zero Real is a legitimate upgrade and not a clone of the M3 DS Simply. The iTouch series comes from the M3i Zero Team, designed as an entry level to their family of cards. The M3i Zero and the M3i Upgrade are fakes that are NOT from the M3 Team and should not be relied upon.
