Husband and wife Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth of the TALKING HEADS covered this in their side band, THE TOM TOM CLUB, back in 1981. There's a lot of synthesizer used in this cover of the song
Under the Boardwalk
My favorite cover of "Under the Boardwalk" is Rickie Lee Jones' version from her 'Girl at Her Volcano' LP.
However, I was in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, on business, and I heard another cover of this song on the radio station that was preset in the rental car. It was really quite good (though still not as good, IMHO, as Rickie Lee's). Of course, the radio station did not identify who it was.
So, my questions are these: What is your favorite version of Under the Boardwalk? What is the best recording of Under the Boardwalk (other than Rickie Lee)?
Thanks.
