The initial delight in hearing MD take on the Stooges classic has worn off. I like that they have made it their own, but it's just that bit too slow and lethargic feeling. Their version of the Alan Vega number, however, is pretty much perfection
Not sure if You're familiar with Hawkwind track 'Hurry on Sundown', not my fav Hawkwind track by a long straw, but Moon Duo did a version that is one on my top ten cover versions. They deffo turned it into a Suicide track whilst also beng totally their own take on things.

Agree on Portishead. I don't think the album can be much improved on. Though played it so much back in the day that it barely gets an airing these days.
