Your Covers Album...

[beckstra]

Come on, both aspiring musicians and frustrated fantasists -- you've just been given your big freaking chance. A backing band exactly to your liking, a producer you want to work with, and a ride to the studio of your choice.

Catch is, your first release has to be all covers. Sucks, but play Sinatra=interpreter and then the big money benefactor lets you help write your next release. (Damn you for being born with the most blessed vocal cords since Annie Lennox.)

Here's my pathetic fantasy, for all to mock:
