How does a band like Slade get their due. The Glam/Hard Rock group from Woverhampton, England has had some of their songs go on to become hits from other bands. Even catipulting a band like Quiet Riot into the stratosphere. Yes in the early 80s they had a MTV video hit with Run, Run, Away. But it seems not too many music fans every talk about them being a huge influence on other bands. I recently purchased one of their greatest hits albums and it's not bad surprisingly. Here some covers that I found:
Coz I Luv You - The Wonder Stuff
Cum on Feel the Noise - Bran Van 3000, Quiet Riot, Oasis
Goodbye to Jane - Van Halen, Britny Fox
Mama Weer All Crazee Now - The Runaways, Quiet Riot, The Fargone Beauties, and Mama's Boys
Run Run Away - Great Big Sea
Merry Christmas Everybody - Oasis
