I heard a Bang A Gong cover the other day on the radio, and I swear it wasn't Power Station. But I never did hear the DJ say who it was. It was on a Modern Rock station that rarely plays older tunes. Has another, relatively new cover of T.Rex's "Bang a Gong" been released by a new band?

The song was covered as "Bang A Gong (Get It On)" by the rock band, Power Station in 1985; it was a hit single from their album Power Station. The track was a minor hit on the UK singles chart reaching #22, but it peaked at #9 (one place higher than the original) on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S.
The British production group, Bus Stop, sampled the vocals from the 1971 original, in their 2000 version of the song.
The song was covered by the Chilean rock band, Los Bunkers in 2005 on their album "Vida de Perros"

The only versions I've ever heard are T. Rex and Powerstation.
