Top 10 Covers of Deep Purple's Song Highway Star

This was a very important song in metal history as it was influential towards pretty much every metal band that has came after and several bands have covered this song so here are the best covers.

The Top Ten

1 Highway Star - Metal Church

I love this list - Highway Star is my favorite Deep Purple song. I will never get tired of it.

To me this is the best cover of the song

2 Highway Star - Chickenfoot

Chickenfoot is a rock supergroup with guitarist Joe Satriani and singer Sammy Hagar. But it was the bassist Michael Anthony who did the signature intro scream and he did it really well.

This is a live cover

All Doom metal bands were influenced by Black Sabbath but Type O Negative were influenced by Deep Purple as well
