When the original band joins the cover, is it still a cover?
Original: Can a song be called a # cover if the orginal band members play on the re-arranged cover song? Red Hot Chilli Pipers w B
Music fans are debating whether a re-arranged song still counts as a cover when members of the original band perform on it. The discussion centres on the Red Hot Chilli Pipers' bagpipe version of ZZ Top's 'La Grange', recorded with ZZ Top members Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill and Frank Beard, alongside piper Dougie McCance. Some argue it becomes a collaboration or a re-recording rather than a cover.
Why now: The unusual line-up of the original band playing on a bagpipe reworking of their own song raises a genuine question about what defines a cover.
