Listening to a cover of Gerry Rafferty's Baker's Street on my online station and can never get the name of the artist who covers it. I looked through the YT covers to see if I could find it - no luck. However, I did stumble across this and think it's pretty fantastic IMHO: It's great to see a younger generation so incredibly talented and inspired by "oldies". There's even a girl drummer in the trio. :) Not sure if she's better than Karen Carpenter but to say the least, she's pretty good:

Baker Street (Gerry Rafferty) - Cover by Noah-Benedikt ft. @Cara Vel & @sina-drums

I think she gets an honourable mention considering it's all saxophone:

Some extremely interesting predictive programming included in George Michael's version from 1993.

I used to love this song when I was a kid. I'll spare you the naff video


Today, as an old geezer, I love this version more.

I was listening to this the other day. I'm still awestricken by the performance! Lol, Gabriella puts my grade 10 guitar class to absolute shame:

(Kansas) Dust In The Wind - Gabriella Quevedo

The arrangement is by Sungha Jung, who I think is on the poster behind her. He must be a child prodigy because here he is here playing Billie Jean:

Great to see young people putting down their phones and picking up the acoustic guitar!
