Bassboosa -- Wicked Game

[toasty]

Very taken with this down tempo, chilled out cover of Chris Issak's "Wicked Game," but can't find it anywhere. Anyone got any wisdom on where I could track it down? It's not on iTunes, and I'm not seeing it on amazon or anything like that.

They preview the song on their myspace page, and I find myself visiting the page just to hear the song...

^I have that problem at work, too, but it works fine at home. Not sure why.

Give it a listen, if you can. If you like the DT stuff and like the original (or maybe even if you don't), it's a classic, IMO.

Thanks for the link. They're actually fairly different -- dubby games is basically "Wicked Games" with a stronger beat and dub elements. The Bassboosa version is a reworking of the song that stands alone apart from the original -- most notable difference is that there's a gal singing it, and it has a really haunting quality to it, IMO.

Def. check it out if you have the opportunity.

Only now, 10 odd years later did I notice that she is wearing men's tighty whities. Anyone know who she is?
