Most played Loudermilk songs
 

On the pages of last.fm one can see which songs are played most these days. That is, by those many, many people who have joined the last.fm-community.
From these playlists I have compiled a list of recently most played Loudermilk covers. The overview is made november 2007.

By far favourite now is the song Turn Me On. Norah Jones' version is by miles the most played song now, and even the #2 spot is for the same song, in Nina Simone's version.
There's a lot of Tobacco Roads in the top 100 list. Most played now is David Lee Roth' version.
Also many times Windy & Warm (most popular the version by Tommy Emanuel, and various Sad Movies (popular in the Brazilean-Portugese version Filme Triste).
It's a bit of a shame to see, how little the original songs performed by the composer himself are played nowadays. In this top 100 listing, John D. scores with only 2 songs: Angela Jones at #39 and John's own, fantastic version of Tobacco Road comes not higher than #95...
