Rock Candy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Rock Candy" is a song by Montrose from their 1973 debut. Along with Bad Motor Scooter, it is probably the best known Montrose song. It is the sixth track from the album Montrose, and starts out with a punishing drum beat courtesy of drummer Denny Carmassi and one of Ronnie Montrose's most famous riffs. It was composed by all four members of the band. The song still gets performed on Sammy Hagar's solo tours and even had been re-recorded as the b-side to the Hagar single Little White Lie by the original band.
[edit] Cover versions
The song was covered by the Glam metal band BulletBoys for the Wayne's World soundtrack in 1991. It was also covered by Dixie Witch for the 70s cover compilation album, Sucking the 70's - Back in the Saddle Again. Canadian rocker Lee Aaron also covered the song in her album Bodyrock.
