4. Cover Of The Rolling Stone

coveroftherollingstone

Cover Of The Rolling Stone was written by Shel Silverstein and recorded by Dr Hook in 1972.

It was the 3rd single they ever released and scored a #6 hit in the US. In the UK the BBC refused to play the song citing advertising for the magazine Rolling Stone.

So so UK DJs recorded over the recording and shouted RADIO TIMES over the words Rolling Stone. It didn't make any difference as the song never charted in the UK.
