what are your favorite covers of songs?

here's an awesome one: Patti Smith "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

Very cool Rob, if you can play it with a bluegrass vibe the genius can be heartbreaking. Thats probably why I like that bluegrass band from Chicago, got off of the track, thanks Rob, I hadn't heard that before. If it was the Beatles or Jimi Hendrix or any artist you loved doing the cover, it was the best, because, you just wanted to hear that artist play :lol: For me this band brought the tribute idea to new heights or depths depending on your doctor prescribed medical treatment :lol:
Dread Zeppelin - Immigrant Song

I've stated before that Steve Earle summed up my sentiments about Shania better than anyone else: "She's not hard to look at but awfully hard to listen to."

These are some GREAT choices! I'm so used to seeing the crap people put down as favorite whatevers on Facebook.

If Rod Stewart only did one great song, it would be his cover of "Reason To Believe".

Ellen McIllwaine's covers of "Can't Find My Way Home". The first is marvelous, the second is, well, kinda like what Hendrix did to the Star Spangled Banner...way, 'WAY out there!

Nobody mentioned Santana's two most famous covers:
Black Magic Woman (Peter Green for Fleetwood Mac)
Oye Como Va (Tito "El Rey" Puente)

And, of course, Ritchie Valens "cover" of La Bamba.

Bit off the wall, given the number of Blues songs referred to, but my 2 fave covers are Windmills of Your Mind performed by Sting, and Diamonds & Rust performed by Blackmore's Night.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xj1uUwWI4ig Blackmore and Night doing it live, but the recorded version is better.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kb9dcv1xDiY Man, this just so classy..
