Got Ya Covered

Here's another classic rock super group paying homage to one of histories greatest singer songwriters.

Last week we featured a classic rock supergroup paying tribute to one of the best bands ever, and this week it's another legendary rock group covering that same band. When Van Halen emerged in 1978, they took the rock world by storm, theri concerts and albums featured covers by Roy Orbison, Martha and the Vandellas, and even Roy Rogers...

Many Artists beginning their journey to rock fame begin with inspirations from other rock legends, and some pay tribute to them in song.

It's not often that the legendary Bruce Springsteen is out shined by another living legend for a few covers from one of the biggest bands in rock history.

Bob Seger wrote and recorded the song for his 1973 album 'Back in '72" as a tribute to Canadian Disc Jockey Rosalie Trombley.

Bruce Springsteen wrote and recorded the original version for his 1973 debut album 'Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J..

Written and recorded by Chuck Berry in 1956, the song hit #29 on the US pop charts and Rolling Stone ranked it as #97 on the top 500 greatest songs.

Inspired by a melody Robert Plant and Jimmy Page heard while traveling in Bombay, it was Led Zeppelin's first track to be released as a single for radio airplay in March of 1973.

Another great song penned by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, recorded by the Rolling Stones in May of 1966, for their album 'Aftermath'

This week's 'Got Ya Covered' video was written by Pete Townshend in 1971, and appeared on The Who's album, Who's Next.
