[...] Various Artists – Ram on L.A. Cover albums can be a tricky proposition, an artistic attempt studded with the landmines of creative missteps, awkward new versions and flat-out misguided covers of classic music—a great swath of the best and most powerful rock albums (though not all—I’m looking at you, Bee Thousand) often contain some kind of conceptual through-line or sustained mood that holds them together, and it’s exactly that sense of cohesion that is lost in translation when an individual artist’s POV is splintered into ten or twelve separate and distinct voices under a covers umbrella.
