Sign in to disble this ad
So Edgar Winter wrote Frankenstein way back when, and I've got copies of both Phish and Marcus Miller doing their covers of the song. When I heard the song on the radio on Friday, none of these versions were the one played. Who besides these three has released recorded versions of Frankenstein?
Thanks TB |

..also, search allmusic for others.
BTW, killer live version on the Old Grey Whistle Test DVD with Derringer on guitar, not Montrose.
