Perhaps The Spencer Davis Group were the first rock band to record a quality cover.  Off of their Autumn '66 album.
 

 

How many 'quality covers' did the Beatles, Stones, Beach Boys etc etc put on their pre-66 albums.

Sometimes you even dont know musicians died, the ones you grew up with.

Sometimes i check and sometimes also amazed, as you didnt hear.

Alan Lancaster, Richard Parfitt (Status Quo), Astrud Gilberto(also recently), Margriet Eshuijs (house for sale), Brian  Connely, Steve Priest, Mick Tucker (The Sweet) Eddy v Halen, Garry Moore and way more of them, all RIP

Ill put in Astrid with her famous song

True, indeed, bannork.  She was a troubled woman.  May she find the peace she deserves.

RIP Randy. You wrote one of their most memorable numbers, imo.

Still sounds great today.

Last night a docu about her on tv. Well she had to endure a lot, specially in USA.

When you see, she gave a concert and HAD to start with USA star spangled banner.

She refused and then was burned down, amazing. Dumb USA. Seeing her in talkshows and getting burned on that. It is amazing she stayed on the shows, I would have walked. 

Also the big disappointment in her religion (catholic) didnt do her well.

She tore a picture of the pope in front of tv. But made a real statement in the time catholic church was abusing kids (they still do?)

She had a lot of people against her.

See this movie, she sang it a total different way, due to disrespectfully audience.

In the docu she said, she had to sing it different due to the circumstances.

She couldnt sing it in the way it was.

I admire her for that.

The docu impressed me and left me somehow with WTF.

I remember them, as they were in the chart, amazing though as it is not really pop.

Mick still rocking at 80! - God, please continue to give Mick the strength to keep rockin' much, much longer.  And, God, ditto for Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood.

Loved this album back then, it's still hits the right spot - Thanks God for all of the wonderful Stones music.

God bless rocknroll [sic]  - And God bless all of us Stones fans that we may be rock 'n' rollin' all the way to Heaven where we'll all have front row seats and back stage passes.

And God, please have Sympathy For The Devil.

Her heart was in the right place and I give her credit for that.  She wasn't able, though, to temper her righteous anger with the understanding that there is no such thing as a perfect nation as all nations are the creation of imperfect humans (imperfect only in terms of our current understanding of perfection).  Therefore she unwisely threw the baby out with the bathwater.

Sinéad O'Connor performing You Made Me The Thief Of Your Heart at the BBC broadcast Top Of The Pops in '94.  Such a shame she kept her head shaven in protest over the treatment of women.  Hence why I picked a video in which she still had hair.  It accented her beauty so well.

Tom Waits performs Tom Traubert's Blues from his '76 Small Change LP live on Rockpalast, WDR Studio L, Köln, West Germany, April 18, '77.  I saw Waits on October 19, '78, in a lounge setting at the Park West in Chicago.  Leon Redbone cued him up.  A fantastic show.
