Albums where the closing track is a cover.

As there's been a thread on where the opening song is a cover how about we flip the script.

I'll get us started.

Lana Del Rey : Chemtrails Over The Country Club - For Free (Joni Mitchell)

The Black Crowes : The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion - Time Will Tell (Bob Marley)

 

The Beatles did this on four of their first five albums:
-Twist and Shout (Please Please Me)
-Money (With The Beatles)
.....they went all-originals with AHDN...and then...
-Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby (Beatles For Sale)
-Dizzy Miss Lizzy (Help!)

 

“Viola Lee Blues” Grateful Dead (1967)

 

Creedence Clearwater Revival ended the "Green River" album with a cover of "The Night Time is the Right Time".

 

Nils Lofgren did it twice in his first three albums:

S/T - Goin' Back
I Came To Dance - Happy

 

Pretenders - Get Close: Room Full of Mirrors - Jimi Hendrix

 

Van Halen's Diver Down - "Happy Trails" (Roy Rogers and Dale Evans)

 

A short version (a little over 1 minute) of Lee Dorsey's "Ya Ya" closes John Lennon's Walls and Bridges album.

 

The Jam- "Heatwave" (Setting Sons)

 

Shiny Toy Guns-We Are Pilots V2, 2005
*Stripped- M.L. Gore, 1986

 

Bob Seger's Night Moves album: "Mary Lou" (originally done by Young Jessie in the mid-1950s)

 

“Angel Dust” by Faith No More has the “Midnight Cowboy” theme as last song.
They doubled-up when re-releasing the album, by adding “Easy” by the Commodores as a bonus track.

 

“Got My Mind Set On You”- ‘Cloud 9’
George Harrison

 

Venus and Mars by Paul McCartney & Wings: Ends with a short version of the "Crossroads Theme".

 

The White Stripes De Stijl "Your Southern Can Is Mine" by Blind Willie McTell
David Bowie Station To Station "Wild Is The Wind"

 

Pet Shop Boys - Very ("Go West")

 

Circle Jerks- "Just Like Me/Put A Little Love in Your Heart" (Wild in the Streets)
Circle Jerks- "Golden Shower of Hits (Jerks on 45)" (Golden Shower of Hits) (it's a medley of cover tunes)

 

--- Closes with Slim Harpo's "Got Love If You Want It"

 

Massive Attack - Protection: Light My Fire (Doors). My favorite cover of that song!

 

Ween’s “The Mollusk” ends with a secret instrumental reprise of the opening track “I’m Dancing In The Show Tonight” which itself is a cover of “Are My Ears on Staight?” by Gayla Peevey with modified lyrics. Since the ending track is an instrumental, you could say it’s just a straight up instrumental cover of the Gayla Peevey track.

 

Marshall Crenshaw’s Good Evening album closes with Bobby Fuller’s Let Her Dance.

 

CSNY - looking forward - sanibel by denny sarokin.

WHY?

 

Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan's self-titled album closes with a cover of the Bee Gees' "Jive Talkin'" which they also had a single with in 1976.

 

Alice Cooper's latest album, Detroit Stories, not only opens with a cover (Velvet's Rock & Roll) but closes with another cover (Bob Seger's East Side Story)!

 

Pantera's Far Beyond Driven, which ended with a (great) cover of Black Sabbath's "Planet Caravan". I actually prefer it to the Sabbath version.
