Dave,
I do love Stevie’s version. has to be said. Joe Bonnamassa’s version of ‘Tea for One’ is just awesome too.

Good list

Police on my back - the Clash

Little Wing - Stevie Ray Vaughn

Was working on learning Hendrix’s version when I heard Stevie Ray play it. Almost put the guitar away for good.

Laura,
Nice list, used to love a bit of Isaac’s ‘hot buttered soul’

Like the Iggy one too.
Thanks!

Rod,
Nice list, what about ‘Louie, Louie’ of better still, Rolf’s version of ‘Stairway’

Miles,
great idea - it’s a good list and you’re right #1 takes some beating - I don’t claim these do just worthy of consideration and in no particular order

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher Ground
Whitesnake - Ain’t No Love in the Heart of the City
Motorhead / Ozzy - Hellraiser
ZZ Top - Viva las Vegas

Best
Rod
