Thursday song of the day: Summertime Blues by Blue Cheer. Considered by many to be the first Heavy Metal band, Blue Cheer released their first album Vincebus Eruptum in 1968. The album included a cover of Eddie Cochrans 1958 hit, Summertime Blues, performed in a much heavier style than the original. The Blue Cheer version reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the first heavy metal song to make the pop charts, beating Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf and In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by a few months. Heres the Blue Cheer cover, along with the Eddie Cochran original. youtube/watch?v=YXcYZsqkZ-g youtube/watch?v=fZZD8ckwLJA Tomorrow: Keep your silly ways or throw them out the window.
