12AU7 Genalex or Psvane for Cayin Hybrid Integrated H80A

Cover songs that are better than the originals.
@bdp24 Thanks pal. Agreed that Clash version of "I Fought The Law" is excruciating. Powder Puff bunch of Poser's. Yep love Barrett's "Money". Fantastic. Somehow "The Killer" found a way to make it his own. The Beatles version is really lame IMO.
