Round 42:
This song recently appeared in "The Cover or The Original?". Now let's look at 2 different versions of it, neither being the original.
Shapes Of Things before Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart's eyes:
Shapes Of Things before Ian Gillan and Deep Purple's eyes:
As seen on the other thread, the original version is by The Yardbirds, during Jeff Beck's tenure with the band.
He would later re-record it, with a completely new arrangement, with The Jeff Beck Group for their debut album by suggestion of their singer... some Rod Stewart.
Most following cover versions of the song would follow this new arrangement template instead of the original ![]()
