Dirk Darmstaedter - Covers Two (2018) [Hi-Res]

Here’s a collection of cover songs I've recorded over the past year.
I’ve been very fortunate to have my very own radio show on Radio Bremen (’Sounds Like Dirk’ on Bremen zwei) for a bit over a year now where I can play anything I want. Excellent fun!
One of the things I like to do is ask my audience for cover song suggestions that I will then record and play in my next show.
I’ve since been sent a bucketful of great song ideas, from Prefab Sprout (check) to KISS (still working on that one).
These tracks were all recorded with my next show in mind but also kind of make up my musical DNA.
Songs and artists that I grew up with, learnt from and cherish to this day.
Here’s a rundown of what’s on ‘Covers Two’ and the artists that originally recorded the songs:
