[bradm]

I need a ruling from MarcO: "Feedback" by the Grateful Dead was entered by myself, djmelbatoast, and Davey Boy; does that mean all three of us are excluded from entering into this topic again, or should two of the three entrants be freed up because their entries were duplicates?

Aloha,

Brad

Do cover/tribute bands count? It would be easy to fill up the rest with Dead cover bands alone! (DSO, Caution Jam, Crazy Fingers, etc. etc. etc.)

Absolutely not. No cover bands whatsoever. Wouldn't be a challenge at all otherwise, would it?

8. The Rolling Stones - Loving Cup - ("Like A Rolling Stone" by Bob Dylan)

I don't think so.

The Rolling Stones were formed in 1962, but Dylan didn't release "Like A Rolling Stone" until 1965.

Out she goes.

[Rob Not Bob]

Also, Booche needs to get off his ass and fix his entry.

[Esau.]

8. The Rolling Stones - Loving Cup - ("Like A Rolling Stone" by Bob Dylan)

From the Muddy Waters song "Rolling Stone".

[MarcO]

[AD]

Ooooooh, yeah, ooh, yeah

Everythin', everythin', everythin's gonna be alright this mornin'

Rollin' Stone

Muddy Waters, Rolling Stones (How did the Stones get a writing credit? Perhaps the source for these lyrics isn't the best...)

Well, I wish I was a catfish,

swimmin in a oh, deep, blue sea

I would have all you good lookin women,

fishin, fishin after me

Sure 'nough, a-after me

Sure 'nough, a-after me

Oh 'nough, oh 'nough, sure 'nough

I went to my baby's house,

and I sit down oh, on her steps.

She said, "Now, come on in now, Muddy

You know, my husband just now left

Sure 'nough, he just now left

Sure 'nough, he just now left"

Sure 'nough, oh well, oh well

Well, my mother told my father,

just before hmmm, I was born,

"I got a boy child's comin,

He's gonna be, he's gonna be a rollin stone,

Sure 'nough, he's a rollin stone

Sure 'nough, he's a rollin stone"

Oh well he's a, oh well he's a, oh well he's a

Well, I feel, yes I feel,

feel that a low down time ain't long

I'm gonna catch the first thing smokin,

back, back down the road I'm goin

Back down the road I'm goin

Back down the road I'm goin

Sure 'nough back, sure 'nough back

[Esau.]

Not sure what happened to my post...

But since most folks trust wiki more then a bands actual website, I guess this is a better post....

"Rollin' Stone" is the name of a 1948 Muddy Waters blues song.

"Rollin' Stone" was written by Muddy Waters and credited under his real name, McKinley Morganfield. Waters based the song on Mississippi blues singer/guitarist Robert Petway's song "Catfish Blues", but added a beat and some changes to make it his own. "Rollin' Stone" was the first single ever released on Chess Records.

The song provided The Rolling Stones with their name and also influenced Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone".[1]
