20 Sonic Salutes - From Adam Ant To XTC

I can’t remember what exactly triggered this compilation but I guess like a pot of coffee it must have percolating in my mind for quite some time.
Perhaps it was Phil Lynott’s tribute to Elvis (King’s Call) that got me out of my lazy chair, put on my Indiana Jones’ hat and started digging around the internet.
Within a relatively short time I had collected a decent amount of tracks which all mentioned singers, groups, and a DJ.
Most were respectful, others definitely not, a few did a good tongue in cheek job and some weird ones…
Of course this is not an exactly original concept (both Stinky & Unherdmusic made similar) but I think I managed to collect a nice bunch (hopefully!) without any overlaps.

Adam Ant, Beatles, Bo Diddley, Bob Dylan, Brian Wilson, Carl Perkins, Edith Piaf, Eddie Cochran, Elvis Presley, Gene Vincent, Jet Harris, John Peel, Johnny Ace, Johnny Cash, Little Richard, Mose Allison, Nick Drake, Rolling Stones, Tom Jones, Willie Dixon, and XTC
