Foo Fighters Revive Gerry Rafferty’s “Baker Street” on Jimmy Kimmel Live

After nearly a 20-year dormancy, Dave Grohl and company are playing their cover of Gerry Rafferty’s classic live again

Foo Fighters revisited their cover of Gerry Rafferty’s “Baker Street” for the final performance of their Jimmy Kimmel Live residency.

The band originally released their rendition of the Rafferty classic in 1998, when it served as a B-side on the “My Hero” U.K. single; their “Baker Street” became a minor radio hit of its own in certain markets.

“Now this is something we definitely haven’t done in 20 years,” Grohl told the crowd that night. “This is one of my favorite songs of all time, I have so many amazing childhood memories of this song.”

While only the Hollywood Palladium crowd witnessed Foo Fighters return to “Baker Street,” the band let the public viewing audience share the moment as well to close out their week on Kimmel, which also included performances of “Window” and their first-ever single “This Is a Call.”
