    Dave Edmunds:

    Get It - My Baby Left Me

    There is also "Bad Is Bad" on Repeat When Necessary written by the members of the American band Clover who recorded an album in 77 at Rockfield Studios...but I can't see where they recorded it first so it may have been written for Edmunds and not a cover.
