Rush's cover of Summertime Blues by Eddie Cochran is bloody brilliant, mind you, I love the whole Feedback album
Phil & Phriends covering Mr Tambourine Man (Dylan) Phil & Phriends covering Wish You Were Here (Floyd) Phil & Phriends covering Hurricane (Dylan)
Of Montreal covering Elf Power`s `The Secret Ocean`, and The Kinks` `The World Keeps Going Round`. Of Montreal is the greatest band ever.
white stripes covering dylans "one more cup of coffee" cream covering robert Johnsons "crossroads" are two good ones.
Iron Maiden's version of "cross-eyed mary" and Johnny Cash's version of "personal jesus". The deep purple version of "Hey Joe" is worth a mention too.
All Phish covers are great but my favorite is probably the Talking Head's Rock and Roll. String Cheese also does some great covers. my favorite is Bob Dylan's Tom Thumb blues. Panic does a great Goin Out West by Tom Waits And Keller does a great Til the morning comes by the Grateful Dead
...Oh god. Let's make babies. Uhh.. I really liked "Imagine", by APC ... Tool did a really good cover of "No Quarter" and a live version of "Stranglehold". Maynard's just got a sexy voice. Anal **** covered "Stayin' Alive." All I can say is fucking brutal. XD System of a Down covered "Metro". Covers that sucked... Any cover by Metallica. "Love Song", by 311. A bunch of other ones.
Ive never heard Phish cover Quinn the Eskimo...Im gonna check that out As for me I like The White Stripes versions of "Stop Breakin' Down Blues" & "Black Jack Davey"
some great ones are Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt Jeff Buckley's cover of Halleluiah The White Stripes cover of I just don't know what to do with myself Joss Stone's cover of Fell in love with a girl and Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's (sp?) version of somewhere over the rainbow/wonderful world.
I love the version of Black Jack Davey by the White stripes as well, great cover! Don't know if it's my favourite cover though, but it's a very nice one.
geez there was a thread just made about this...... normally I let these things go, because they are weeks later, but this one was just made a couple days ago, this will be attached to the previous one.
