Good one. This song gets covered by the oddest people.

Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

Better than Shattner's "vocals" certainly.

It might be a ho...

Kings of Leon are a no brainer when it comes to Tbirds the bass player has been rocking them for years. This isn't a live recording but the tbird tone is instantly recognizable.

Holy shit! I TOTALLY stole that bass line (and tone) from "Big Train" and for one of our originals in my old band and I've never heard that song before. Our song had one more chord and was originally in a different key and that is the only difference. It's probably the same age, too.  I've not ever been that big of a Mike Watt fan, but I think that's pretty cool.

 ;D
 years ago I wrote a song 'Velvet Elvis' (kind of a heartland rock tune) and maybe a month or two the Stray Cats released 'Elvis on Velvet'.    :o  I couldn't believe it.  of course the songs sound quite different.  it happens, what can you say?

Haha, at 2:16 Keith throws up a drumstick and misses it. :)

I've been looking for a video of theirs that (purportedly) features JAE with the PC "Flame" bass, but I have no idea as to what the song was... :-\

Mike Watt, Dave Grohl and Eddie Vedder again from Jon Stewart Show, this time performing Blue Öyster Cult's "Red and the Black". The first part of the clip is Stewart's interview with Theo Kogan. Around 3:35 the band starts.

Clocks.

Oh my, Michael looked horrible around that time, bad dress sense too. Mogg should have sucker-punched him right there.

Moving on ... some black cat singing a song I've never heard, but there's a 60ies TBird too so why complain?
