That notion didn’t last long! Lots of ‘punk’ bands covered loads of songs written by or made famous by Ye Olde Dinosaurs. Some were good, some maybe not so.
Here’s some I can think of. What have you got?

The Pistols were covering The Small Faces, Jonathan Richman, Dave Berry from the off
I'll try and stick to Elvis, Beatles and The Rolling Stones
Mo-Dettes - Paint It Black (1980)

Sydney band X also did Paint It Black, but not to be found by me on the web.
But here's another version of Satisfaction.
Eddie and the Hot Rods, live, 1976
