Did Steve Miller ever record a reggae version of this song? I think I heard
a live version of it recently.

Did they ever do a reggae version of ANY of their tunes? I am surprised
their aren't more cover version of SM songs. They are quite rare. Phish
can sound a lot like them, at times. They did actually cover an SM tune,
didn't they?

I was talking about a real cover version, with a real band.
Plagiarizing actual pieces of the original recording is not legitimate
music. It is my main gripe against rap and hip-hop music, in general.
And most modern reggae.
