The "All Music Guide" will list all the artists who recorded a particular song. You might be able to figure out who recorded a song first from that.

If you post another question and state which particular song you want to know about, I might be able to help you more. I' m pretty knowledgable about older music.

Hi,

I talk about cover versions a lot on my blog, Sample as that, but don't claim to be encyclopaedic.
There's a website called The Covers Project which is trying to do this, and probably does it better than anyone else.
The-Breaks is the best place for finding out where samples have come from.

If you have iTunes you could try looking up the song in their music shop. It should give you every artist who has produced a version of it (if the have it in stock) and also list the composer.

Urm, yeah-If you use Windows Media Player, it should come up with the original composer in the bar, so type him/her/it into google and it should come up with some stuff telling u what band he was in
