Foo Fighters Revive "Baker Street" After 20 Years

Foo Fighters recently performed their cover of Gerry Rafferty's "Baker Street" live, marking its first rendition in nearly two decades. This surprise revival occurred as the final performance during their residency on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The band originally released their version of the classic song in 1998 as a B-side to their "My Hero" single.

Following its release, Foo Fighters occasionally played the song live throughout the following decade, with the last known performance taking place in November 2007. Dave Grohl expressed his fondness for the song, noting its significant childhood memories for him.

The reappearance of "Baker Street" happened earlier this month at a benefit show for the Silverlake Conservatory of Music. This significant revival delighted fans who had not heard the cover live in approximately 20 years, bringing a cherished piece of their musical history back to the stage.
