Leo Kottke does "The Last Steam Engine Train" Originally done by John Fahey. Leo's version is one of my favorite pieces ever.

Hellecasters doing Tommy & Phil Emmanuel's "Back on the Terra Firma"

In case I have it wrong and it's a Hellecasters track, here's the Emmanuel brothers studio version played over their Sydney 2000 version at the Olympics:

Cage The Elephant doing My Arms Don't Bend That Way, Dammit! by Let's Wrestle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNq4pk6p6qM (there IS a version with better sound quality, but this performance was much better IMO) that's from the acoustic set i saw them do, and that is indeed my youtube account :mrgreen:

The Melvins' cover of Goin Blind by Kiss is 1000000000000x better than the original IMO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmX_7B8c-ww

Nirvana's version of D-7 by the Wipers is awesomeness:
