Review# 140Cover Up is a fun album and I have always been a fan of Ministry's covers. This album is full of guests like Burton C Bell, Tommy Victor and Josh Bradford and other long time collaborators of Al's. Most is the covers a full of humour and interesting twists. My biggest disappointment with the album is more because I am a long time fan so already had albums with Lay Lady Lay, Roadhouse Blues and Supernaut and would rather have some new covers for my amusement. Although the Supernaut cover (originally recorded under the name 1000 Homo DJ's)is freaking awesome so I shouldn't complain. One of the best tracks is the final track (not including hidden and bonus tracks) a cover of Louie Armstrongs's What A Wonderful World... It is just an amazing cover with a healthy dose of sarcasm for good measure. The aforementioned bonus tracks are edited versions of What A Wonderful World into slow and fast cuts and a cover of Ministry's Stigmata relabelled Stigmatized and is supposedly sung be an anonymous fan putting on a Willie Nelson voice.
