Hummmm ... You know, I do skip a few tunes there. But, yeah ... that's a nice cover record.

I remember the 1st time I saw this video and heard that tune - it was here at the Links.
No so sure if it was you who posted the video, bro. But I'll tell you - hell of a version there.
It really kicks!

Nothing against the Showstoppers, but The J. Geils Band owns “(Ain’t Nothin’ But A) House Party”

Lynyrd Skynyrd - “Call Me The Breeze”

And, yeah, I’ll give KISS the nod for “2000 Man”

I prefer this cover than the original

And John’s best vocal work by far:

poor Ray Davies - I prefer Van Halen's "You Really Got Me" and "Where Have All The Good Times Gone", The Jam's "David Watts" and Pretenders "Stop Your Sobbing" and "I Go To Sleep". Don't think I've ever heard a better version of "All Day And All Of The Night" though

and preferring Van Halen with Sammy Hagar's version of "Won't Get Fooled Again" to the Who's original? That's just crazy bias talk right there!
