Your Favorite Cover Songs?


One of the highest honors that can be bestowed on a rock band is to have some other well known act cover your songs.

Here are some of my favorite cover songs:
1. "Well...Alright" (Original by Buddy Holly covered by Blind Faith)
2. "LA Woman" (Original by The Doors covered by Billy Idol)
3. "Love Me 2 Times" (Original by The Doors covered by Aerosmith)
4. "Come On Everybody" (Original by Eddie Cochran covered by Led Zeppelin)
5. "Refugee" (Original by Tom Petty covered by Melissa Etheridge)
6. "The Battle Of Evermore" (Original by Led Zeppelin covered by Heart)
7. "Hard To Handle" (Original by Otis Redding covered by The Black Crowes)

Excuse My brain fart. I forgot I posted 1/2 of the above in March. That's happening more and more these days.
Charles Lloyd and the Marvels cover of Hendrix's Little Wing (featuring Lucinda Williams and Bill Frissel). Heard it last night. Stunningly good!
The Who-Summertime Blues
Elvis Costello-What's so funny about peace, love, and understanding.
Ike and Tina Turner-Proud Mary
The Kingsmen-Louie Louie
Byrds-Turn Turn Turn
Springsteen-Jersey Girl
Aretha-RESPECT
English Beat-Tears of a clown
Patti Smith-Because the night

Grateful Dead-Turn on your love light, Morning Dew, Not fade away, Hard to handle, I know you rider, Iko Iko, Me and my uncle, Samson and Delilah, and The promised land.
He Called Me Baby, all due respect to Patsy Cline; but I think Candy Staton owns that one now, especially since One eskim0 paid her tribute in their Kandi:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_tBHoRaxns


The Four Tops: "Just Walk Away Renee" (original by The Left Banke). Unusual for me to like equally two completely different interpretations of a song (in this case a great one), but, hey, it’s The Four Tops!

The Band: "Long Black Veil" (original by Lefty Frizzell). What other Rock ’n’ Roll band could possibly do this song?!

The Band: "I Shall Be Released" (original sung by Bob Dylan and played by The Hawks in The Basement Tapes). The Band’s version benefits greatly from pianist Richard Manuel’s falsetto vocal, which Eric Clapton has described as heartbreaking. It truly is.

The Yardbirds: "Train Kept A-Rollin’’’ (original by Tiny Bradshaw in 1951, but The Yardbirds copped it from 50’s Rockabillies The Rock ’n’ Roll Trio, whom Jeff Beck idolized).

Lucinda Williams: This Sweet Old World (Lucinda’s 2017 re-recording of her 1992 Sweet Old World album). Muchas betta, imo.

@bdp24 , Have you heard Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes' version? Homage to the Four Tops with an injection of Jersey Juice.

No. that is not Adam Sandler on lead guitar. ;^)
"No Tears Left to Cry" - Miley Cyrus and Mark Ronson

and

"Call Out My Name" - Macy Kate and Sarah Baska

those two the best to increase my mood after long hours of essay and assignment writing)
When you working at the best online writing service as https://www.essay-company.com/assignment-writing you have plenty of work, but it`s still the best job ever I had.

 Shawn Colvin, "Guitar Town", on the Cover Girl album

A great album anyway, but her rendering of this song is wonderful. A despairing cry to escape small town boring existence

The Punch Brothers - The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

Jimmy Lafave -  Walk Away Renee.

“Love is all around”

Original: The Troggs

Covered by: Wet, Wet, Wet

 

 

Perhaps already listed, (it's a long thread), "Proud Mary" By Ike and Tina Turner.
