Out now: 'Uncovered' EP by Suzi Quatro

Veteran rocker Suzi Quatro returns with a new EP, Uncovered, out today via Sun Records (see track listing below). A vinyl release will follow on November 4.

Quatro says, "I am proud to release this EP (Uncovered) of some of my favorite covers. After 58 years in this business, the choice was huge. This is an eclectic mix comprising my influences in the formative years of my first band. It was a pleasure to have Steve Cropper on guitar on two tracks, which he co-wrote, ‘Midnight Hour,’ and ‘Dock of the Bay.’ What a player. Enjoy a trip through my musical history. Rock Classics done by a classic rocker.”
