Jake have recorded a version the Partridge Family classic "I Think I Love You," New York City trash-rockers the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion have covered Dr. John's "Right Place, Wrong Time," and R&B smooth-talker D'Angelo has recorded a version of the Artist Formerly Known As Prince song "She's Always In My Hair." Original tracks are also being contributed by rapper Master P, shirtless heartthrobs Sugar Ray , and alt-rock radio darlings the Dave
