Smoked a LOT of hash off of this cover

 

[Dugdale_Jukes]

A second vote for Van Halen's "you really got me".

Worth noting that up through their first hits compilation (am thinking that was 'high tide and green grass'?) - maybe their first four or five albums, The Brian Jones led Rolling Stones did some great blues covers. That was before their strongest completely original albums up through maybe 1973.
