Cover band? LOL! The first song the band ever played live was an Elmore James cover. We’re going to get puritanical now?

But let’s go with that premise that playing songs like DDIO or any TPATH songs Mike had a hand in writing are covers… They were still a cover band that first show for playing “The Supernatural.” They remained a cover band whenever they played “Get Like You Used To Be,” “Don’t Let Me Down Again,” “Stand Back,” and “Go Insane.”

Not to mention that most albums prior to Rumours had actual covers. The Elmore James stuff, the early rock stuff, “Roadrunner,” “For Your Love,” “Blue Letter,” and even after Rumours, there was “Farmer’s Daughter,” “Cool Water,”’ “Can’t Help Falling In Love,” “Roll With Me Henry,” “Winds of Change,” “Nothing Without You” (a 1975 Delaney Bramlett song that Bekka changed a line on to make it gender neutral), and “Love Minus Zero/No Limit” (which also begs all the Stones covers Lindsey has done since OOTC).
