Good thread this . The list goes on . However I will mention that the song Hi Ho Sliver linning was first recorded by a group called The Attack ans so I heard two weeks before Jeff Beck recorded it . Also it was released a few days before but it was Jeff Beck which made the better version was to enjoy the success with it .
