The Kopy Katz - Jeepster (T. Rex Rockabilly Cover)

The Kopy Katz perform Jeepster live at Coda, Colchester Nov 2023, a cover by T.Rex.
Jeepster" is a 1971 single by Marc Bolan’s glam rock band T. Rex. The track and its B-side, "Life's a Gas", are taken from the group's second album Electric Warrior. The song peaked at No. 2 in the UK charts.
The music and rhythm are similar to that of the Howlin' Wolf song "You'll Be Mine", written by Willie Dixon. In interviews, Marc Bolan has acknowledged that he "lifted it from a Howlin' Wolf song". "Jeepster" has also similarities with Roy Orbison's song "You're My Baby".
