Covers Better Than The Original

This one too - I was at this show...

 

Knocking on Heaven's Door. Gun and Roses Live in Toyko

 

A few come to mind... But the latest I've discovered is the Moonshine Society's cover of "I'd Rather Go Blind" by Etta James

 

Puff Daddy's cover of "Every Breath You Take" by Police.

 

the Dead is one of my favorites
and Me & My Uncle, Good Lovin, It's all over now baby blue, death dont have no mercy, I know you rider, don't ease me in, Stealin, hard to handle, good morning little school girl, smokestack lightning etc.

casey jones & dupree are heavily influenced by two older tunes. thus I'll take this time to post some originals that they covered

 

bless Pig pen

Going up the country was also a Henry thomas song



and some folk say that the US has no culture...

 

Woodstock by Crosby stills and nash much better!! (Although I heard it before the other one)

 

This one is a toughie. I'd say Townes Van Zant's cover of Dead Flowers beats the Rolling Stones by a slim margin.

 

I heard “I think we’re alone now” at a Tommy James concert...great. But Tiffany really nailed It as a cover.
