cover album
Other artists' material
A cover album is a music album consisting primarily or entirely of cover versions—songs originally recorded by other artists.
Musicians release cover albums to pay tribute to influences, reinterpret classics in their own style, or explore genres outside their usual work: She released a cover album of 1970s soul hits.
The term distinguishes such projects from albums of original material.
