       What about this song release? A one off or more to come? An
       album?

       As far as I can tell, it's just a one-off.

       You might have noticed David Lee Roth‘s version of the ’70s hit
       “Baker Street” playing in the background when his offbeat No
       Holds Bar-B-Que video was finally released recently. Now you can
       hear the whole thing, offered as part of the latest installment
       of his online Roth Show series. Check it out above.
       Gerry Rafferty, who died in 2011, composed “Baker Street” around
       his experiences as a struggling busker in the London
       Underground. The song, powered along by Raphael Ravenscroft’s
       signature sax riff, shot to No. 2 in the U.S. in 1978, around
       the same time Van Halen were mounting their first world tour.
       The Van Halen News Desk describes Roth’s take on “Baker Street”
       as “superb,” calling it a “great choice.” It’s unclear who
       created the backing track.
       Roth isn’t the only rocker to tip his hat at the song. Slash
       later said that his guitar solo in “Sweet Child O’ Mine” was
       influenced in part by Ravenscroft’s classic sax turn on “Baker
       Street.” The Foo Fighters also included their own cover in the
       expanded version of 1997’s The Colour and the Shape; it
       originally appeared as a B-side to their hit single “My Hero.”
       In No Holds Bar-B-Que, Roth is seen sporting a ninja costume
       while “Baker Street” plays in the background. The original 2002
       video had never been officially released before it showed up on
       Roth’s YouTube feed earlier this summer.
