The song was later covered by [[Judas Priest]], first appearing on ''[[Sin After Sin]]'', and later as an earlier recording on the Best of Judas Priest, Hero Hero, and on some remasters of the
ir first album, ''[[Rocka Rolla]]''. It also appeared live on ''[[Unleashed in the East]]'' and other live albums. It remains a staple of their live concert performance.

Diamonds & Rust was also covered by [[Blackmore's Night]], on their album ''[[Ghost of a Rose]]''.
