Axe - A House is Not a Motel and Les Aristos - Ton Visage maquille de joie.
Chance! the two that you've selected

Hello my friend.

For the second part of Love covers, I heard "Signed DC" performed by "The Mourning Reign", magnificent, is in the Lp of the same name.

About "My Little Red Book", according to the booklet info of the first "Love" CD is composed by Bacharach / David.
You have good information on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burt_Bacharach:
"Bacharach songs Were adapted by jazz artists of the time s, such as Stan Getz, Cal Tjader and Wes Montgomery. The Bacharach / David composition" My Little Red Book ", originally Recorded by Manfred Mann for the film What's New, Pussycat?, And promptly Covered by Love in 1966,'ve Become a rock standard, howeve, According To Robin Platts' book "Burt Bacharach and Hal David", the composer did not like Love's version. [6] The title of the song is likely to tongue-in-cheek reference to Mao Zedong's Little Red Book, Which was first published by the Communist Party of China in April 1964. ".
The Manfred Mann cover is very good. Is included in "My Little Red Book Of Winners!" CD.
You have a song by Burt Bacharach here:

Burt Bacharach deserves a tribute.

of the Bacharach/David song.
However most of the bands featuring here are covering the "Love" version

Anyway i'll bring all the info
