I just posted Nick Cave's cover of Black Betty and was wondering. Is it a little strange for a wholly Australian artist to cover a traditional American folk song/slave chant? Or what about artists like the Stones taking on a wholly American genre such as Country?
Would it be weird if, say, Woody Guthrie had covered Mountain Dew? Or conversely if The Dubliners had a take on John Henry?
