Tonight’s show features songs from entire album covers. Carole King’s Tapestry, Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours, The Beatles’ Let It Be, and Pink Floyd’s The Wall were all great albums that spawned cover albums.
This show features music from Matchbox Twenty, Shawn Colvin, Amy Grant, Laibach, Nikki Boyer, Luther Wright and The Wrongs, and an original by Fleetwood Mac themselves. (Amy Grant and Laibach in the same show?)
A very fine show, and it gets better each podcast – keep up the good work!
Seems that the link is down.
I notice that all of the enclosure tags are gone from the RSS 2.0 feed!!! Is this a glitch?
I hit the bandwidth limit on my server, so I transferred my files to a new server. It should all be working OK now, though!
Thanks!
I think you’re going to continually have server problems as long as you continue to enclose your “Download Here” gif file in you RSS feed for each podcast.
Here is a piece of your feed:

Instead of the enclosure URL being “http://www.coverville.com”, you have it as “http://www.coverville.com/download_grc.gif”, thus ensuring 1909 bytes of wasted bandwidth for each download of your podcast, plus extra download time.
For you, that adds up pretty significantly over time, so it’s worth addressing.
Good job on podcast! I do enjoy it.
Arrggh. The XML source I placed in the comment above got parsed. To see what I’m talking about, take a look at the XML of your feed.
Hiya,
don’t know if it’s a common problem, but using ipodder 1.1 on w2k, I only got the gif file automatically.. but, hey, I love the show so much I used a browser to download the mp3 file today (how so yesterday!)

Thanks to some great help from Brandon Fuller (the developer of the Movable Type Enclosures plugin), the feed is back to normal. I’ve stripped out the download graphic from the feed itself so that it won’t be downloaded by iPodder. Thanks to all for suggestions and notifications!
The Scissor Sisters have a cover of the Pink Floyd son Comfortably Numb on their new album. It’s pretty cool.
Hey, I really learned to lo love your shows, after having heard only three yet, ’cause in each one there was at least one song to save for the future!
Keep on sending your great shows!
Damn, I really liked that version ‘Never going back’ by Matchbox 20. Not for nothing one of my favorite bands!
Great Podcast man, keep up the good work! Greetingz from holland
I’ve listened to about 3/4 of the shows so far. While the 1/20 and 1/23 shows are excellent – This one is my favorite so far! What a mix!
