    Sixty years ago today, Rod Stewart recorded this classic, albeit creepy blues classic. For Stewart it was the first single of a long and storied career that continues today.

    As an added bonus we hear a young John Paul Jones on bass guitar.

    Legends all around.

  5. The Allman Brothers made it big in album rock circles in the early 70s with an an excellent, classic live rendition on their “Eat A Peach” album. Couldn’t have done it without the original from a decade before.

  7. Ted Tocks Covers - Year 7 - Day 42

    The Acid Queen

    Remembering Tina Turner.

    One year ago today, the music world lost the ‘Queen of Rock and Roll’. Here is just one song that puts her talent on full display.

    “Gather your wits and hold on fast
    Your mind must learn to roam
    Just as the gypsy queen must do
    You’re gonna hit the road”
