4.0 out of 5 stars great cover, July 11, 2001

This review is from: My Hero (Audio CD)

a moderate foo fighters fan, I heard the band's cover of "Baker Street" once, only once, on the radio a few years ago while living in Australia, and kept an eye out for it ever since. While looking for it, I bought a couple of the foo's albums, and have become a fan of their musicianship and energy.

For anyone growing up around a radio in the seventies and eighties "Baker Street" has become a part of your subconscious...admit it, you can hear that saxaphone solo now!

This single is worth it just for the cover

4.0 out of 5 stars 7-track EP is not the greatest, but still impresses, July 18, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: My Hero Ep (Audio CD)

This mini-album contains the LP version of "My Hero" as well as 4 cover songs-"Requiem", "Drive Me Wild", "Down In The Park", and "Baker Street". Requiem and Drive Me Wild are a bit too repetitive to be enjoyable, but Down In the park and Baker Street are Foo classics. Following these 5 tracks are an acoustic "See You" as on The Colour and the Shape and a Dave Grohl solo acoustic "For All The Cows". This Ep is well worth the $16 and the wait for any die hard Foo Fan.

4.0 out of 5 stars A decent little bundle., July 9, 2000

This review is from: My Hero (Audio CD)

First of all, this is the single to one of the coolest Foo Fighters songs, "My Hero." Very catchy, excellent lyrics and one of their best videos, too. "Baker Street" is pretty good, but is best if you already liked the original. "Dear Lover" is decent, but would have been better to include on a full length album. The multimedia section contains a short clip of the "Monkeywrench" video (so-so) and the entire "Everlong" video (JOY!). There are also some pictures and lyrics. Is this worth the price? Well...I'd say 'yes' for a hardcore fan and 'no' for a casual listener.
