I've come to grips with the fact that I like Elton John's Pinball Wizard better than The Who's.

I like the Van Halen version of You Really Got Me more than I like the original version by The Kinks.

Heard the original for the first time a couple of days ago, found it unlistenable. Dynamite Hacks version is infinitely better.
Spoiler: show


Funny part is I heard this version before the original. When I finally gave Eazy E's take a shot I was fully expecting to like it but had to switch it off after the first verse.

Thought of several last night:

1. Johnny Winter - Jumpin' Jack Flash over the Rolling Stones

2. Johnny Winter - Johnny B Goode over Chuck Berry

3. Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe over a ton of artists

4. Jimi Hendrix - Johnny B Goode over Chuck Berry

5. Grand Funk - Inside Looking Out (especially the live version) Over Eric Burdon

6. Eric Burdon - River Deep - Over Tina Turner

I like the Stones version also, but JW's live version is to die for.

I don't hate Chuck Berry, i just think that other people do many of his songs better!

Quote from a book review I wrote on Amazon:

"For me (age 57 as of this writing), R&R started with the Beatles. I am not a 50's rock fan (with a few exceptions: Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Ike & Tina's early work)."
