Incredible! The Yardbirds cover the Velvet Underground!

Hat tip to Doom & Gloom From the Tomb for pointing this one out...Its the Yardbirds playing the Velvets then not-yet-classic "I'm Waiting For My Man" on their final tour in 1968. The quality isn't great, but what do you want, fer christsakes?

From the final U.S. tour in the spring and summer of 1968. Recorded at the Shrine Exposition Hall in L.A. Personnel are Keith Relf (vocals & harp), Chris Dreja (bass), Jim McCarty (vocals & drums) and Jimmy Page (guitar). The British quartet were the first major group to cover a Velvet Underground song.

Movie of the Week: Led Zeppelin - Live at the Royal Albert Hall (1970)

January 9, 1970: Zeppelin Put the Excitement Back Into Pop: It isn’t hard to understand the substantial appeal of Led Zeppelin. Their current two-hour plus act is a blitzkrieg of musically-perfected hard rock that combines heavy dramatics with lashings of sex into a formula that can’t fail to move the senses and limbs. At the pace they’ve been setting on their current seven-town British tour there are few groups who could live with them on stage. (Source)

Rock 'n Roll High School

Tim, Phil, Tony, Clarkstown Senior High South, 1983 or so...

Well I don't care about history
Rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school
'Cause that's not where I wanna be
Rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school
I just wanna have some kicks
I just wanna get some chicks
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school

Well the girls out there knock me out, you know
Rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school
Cruisin' around in my GTO
Rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school
I hate the teachers and the principal
Don't wanna be taught to be no fool
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school

Fun fun rock'n'roll high school
Fun fun rock'n'roll high school
Fun fun rock'n'roll high school
Fun fun, oh baby

- the Ramones, 1981
