May be common knowledge, butI just learned today that Grace Slick was in a band called The Great Society. Someone To Love was written by her then husband's brother, Darby Slick.
They also had a version of White Rabbit.

The Top Notes - "Twist And Shout" (1961)
Produced by Phil Spector; co-writer Bert Bern's hated it and blamed Phil for draining all the vitality out of it

Lemme B. Good - "Good Lovin'" (1965)
The Olympics version came out about a month later and was a minor hit. The Rascals covered it the next year.

I knew about The Great Society, but never listened to them. I was an Airplane fan, though.

Take Yo' Praise by Camile Yarbrough was essentially covered by or stolen by Fat Boy Slim. The biggest wtf for me was Judas Priest covering Joan Baez's Diamonds and Rust.

Whitesnake originally released Here I Go Again on their 1982 album, Saints and Sinners.
They re-recorded it for their 1987 album with a new producer and synth pads which landed them the mega hit we all know. Also says hobo instead of drifter in the chorus.

Was reminded of this tune from Underground Garage earlier today.
The Move - Do Ya
ELO - Do Ya
A song so nice, Jeff Lynne did it twice...or sumpin'.

Clapton had an interesting one.
His song “Let it Rain” was originally recorded with very different lyrics to the same backing track.

I just found out a few days ago the Poor Poor Pitiful Me was written by and originally recorded by Warren Zevon.

EVERYONE knows the Soft Cell version of this song, but few know that it's actually a cover from the 60's.
