I'm on the hunt...

ventaOn the way home from work today, I was listening to a tape a friend made for me. It's all daft cover versions of songs, but unfortunately she didn't know who they were by, so it came minus a track listing.
Most of them are good for a listen or two, but one (a version of Hungry Like the Wolf) really caught my attention. Not really expecting success, I set Shazam[*] on it, and lo! Apparently it's by Reel Big Fish.
Now someone was very into them a little while back -![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
onebyone, was it you ? Was it AdamH ? Can someone tell me whether they're any cop in general, or even lend me an album or something ?
[*] Shazam being the rather wonderful service of which one can avail oneself by dialling 2580 on a mobile, and holding the phone where it can hear some music. You get an sms back telling you what the song was... Costs 50p a go, or free if they can't identify your song; doesn't work from pay-as-you-go phones. I'm still surprised at how unadvertised Shazam is.
