Long before Elliott Smith, The Dandy Warhols, The Decemberists, The Shins, Portugal The Man, and Esperanza Spalding - Portland had The Wipers, Poison Idea, Fred & Toody Cole (Dead Moon and various other bands), Paul Revere & the Raiders, and The Kingsmen.

Led Zeppelin does a live version available on bootleg (think it’s on YouTube) that’s pretty good. Sound is barely acceptable but Page nails the solo. I’m also partial to Iggy Pop’s (not the Stooges one from Metallic KO) version from 2004 or so.
