[alt.rock-n-roll.metal] yet another updated cover list

che@mit-amt.MEDIA.MIT.EDU (Natalio Pincever) (01/17/90)

I'd like to make some corrections/additions to the list

>Impelliteri      - Since You've Been Gone         - April Wine ?

"Since You've been gone" is originally a Rainbow tune.

>Sex Pistols      - (I'm Not Your) Stepping Stone  - Boyce/Hart ?

I think this one was done by the Monkees ( Yeech!).

>Hallow's Eve     - Sheer Heart Attack             - Queen ?

Correct!!

Boyce and Hart were (maybe still are) professional songwriters, who
wrote many of the Monkees best known songs, including "Stepping
Stone".  However, Boyce and Hart didn't write exclusively for the
Monkees; and I have been told that "Stepping Stone" was originally
done by someone else.  Who this might be, however, I have no idea, and
for the purpose of the covers list, the Monkees is probably as 
accurate as you need to be.

And I suggest you don't knee-jerk too hard about the Monkees.  Image
aside, they did a whole lot of damn good songs which stand up very
well against a lot of more-highly-regarded contemporaries.  The
recent 25-song compilation is a good place to start.

Okay there were a couple other's that I forgot:

HEIR APPARANT tune of THE SOUNDS OF SILENCE originally performed by
none other than SIMON AND GARFUNKEL

ACE FREHLEY with DO YA written by one of the best seventies bands,
ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA

and of course, HEATHEN with their version of SAXON'S SET ME FREE
