Rock Lyrics - Best Reference to Other Rock Group


References to other artists and songs are everywhere, but my two favorites are Steely Dan from "Everything You Did":
Turn up the Eagles the neighbors are listening

and Tears For Fears on "Seeds Of Love":
Kick out the Style bring back the Jam

Anybody got any others?

I know your thread title refers to other rock groups, but I give you Barbara Keith's "Death of the American Song" - on the Stone Coyotes cd called "Born To Howl":

"So beat the drum slowly as they carry her away
Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay
I see Tammy and Patsy with their long black dresses on
Mourning the death of the American song"

Every line in "Death of the American Song" is a tribute to a classic old song (more country than anything).

The Stone Coyotes are a little family rock band consisting of Barbara, her husband Doug Tibbles and his son.

Also from Born To Howl, the song "American Child":

"He's a little bit bored
And a litle bit wild
I'm looking for
An American child
Give me Jerry Lee Lewis
Give me Joey Ramone"
Rock and Roll Heaven - The Rightous Brothers
Monterey - Eric Burden and The Animals
Woodstock - Joni Mitchell also CSNY
How about "How Do You Sleep" by John Lennon? Doesn't mention McCartney by name, but definitely refers to him!
From Lucinda Williams "Car Wheels on a Gravel Road"-- "Put on ZZ Top and turn it up real loud", and George Thorogood's reference on his "Anthology" to Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode" as the "R&R National Anthem". Also, Cowboy Junkies "Townes is in the back room......" re: Townes Van Zandt. Good thread '61. Cheers. Craig

"Just like Ronnie (The Ronettes) said, Be My Little Baby."
