What if...

[Dr. Strange]

What if Vince Guaraldi did a cover of Tom Sawyer? (While he was still alive.)
It might sound something like this Bad Plus tune:

Heck, CreekDog might even like this, since it's an instrumental!


Post your own what if scenarios. It can be music, or movies, or comic books. Come on. Partake!

1. What if DuStrange didn't make that "fellate a monkey" movie?

Would our rules of decency still be so prudish?

[Dr. Strange]

4. Clearly, yes.

It was a movie whose time had come. If it hadn't been me, it would have been MrCoffee or Parche. Although their artistic interpretation may have been different.

2. I don't have a What If...

...but the Bad Plus are truly the shit, and I'd encourage anyone to listen more of their tunes--they've done some other really great covers, too.

[Dr. Strange]

3. I just discovered them tonight on stereogum.

Do you have any links to other covers?

[TroglodyteScholar]

6. Sure...

Here they are covering Aphex Twin...This is really mostly a showcase of the drummer's skills...
