Alyson Greenfield - What A Man (Salt-N-Pepa / Linda Lyndell cover)

from Cover Me Turns 10: A Covers Tribute to Covers by Cover Me

	/

about

"I grew up listening to Salt-N-Pepa's "Whatta Man," which I have always loved, but for this cover I decided to go back to the song's original roots and do a version that was inspired by Linda Lyndell's groovy, soulful "What A Man." I wanted to tap in to the song's core by focusing on the voice and lyrics, dropping the tempo, and giving it a stripped down/folk feel with just acoustic guitar and banjo. I didn't include the sample that is the familiar groove from both Lyndell and Salt-N-Pepa's versions, but I think the fun with covers is always making them your own!"
