Feb. 18 : A new section at DoctorStones.net
A new page is born : Rolling
Stones Covered.
You'll find albums and compilations of Stones songs covered by other artists,
and sometimes by the Stones themselves.
Sometimes very good, sometimes pretty bad, sometimes too similar to the
original, covers are a matter of taste. Here's a place to discover how people
could be influenced by a song, and how they dealt with it themselves. Of
course, this page will be updated regularily.
You will also be able to access this page thru the Collector's items section,
which is on the homepage.
