'Typical Girls' is excellent but for me it's their b-side cover of the Marvin Gayes classic 'I Heard It Through The Grapevine' that stands out. If there done well I have always been a fan of covers, especially if the format is changed, and in my opinion this version is brilliant.
So which one do you prefer, the original or the cover? leave a comment, I know where my vote is.
Band: The Slits
Label: Island
Year: 1979
Tracks:
1. Typical Girls
2. I Heard It Through The Grapevine
Ripped from glorious scratched vinyl:
If you like this then buy their debut album, you will not be disappointed, it includes both sides of this single.
