The Cover of Rolling Stone
"The Cover of 'Rolling Stone'" is a song written by Shel Silverstein and first recorded by American rock group Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show. Released in 1972, it was the band's third single and peaked at number six on the U.S. pop chart.
==Song information==
The song satirizes success in the music business; the song's narrator laments that his band has not been featured on the cover of ''Rolling Stone'' magazine despite having the superficial attributes of a successful rock star, including drug usage, "teenage groupies, who'll do anything we say" and a frenetic guitar solo.
As a result, the band was on the March 29, 1973 cover of ''Rolling Stone''; however, they did so in caricature, rather than in a photograph, and with the caption, "What's-Their-Names Make the Cover."
BBC Radio refused to play the song, as it contained the name of a commercial publication (''Rolling Stone'') and could therefore be considered advertising. The song was re-recorded and rush released in the UK as "The Cover of the Radio Times" (''Radio Times'' being the name given to the weekly television and radio guide published by the BBC), which did find its way onto playlists.
