A bit off the beaten path, but one of my all-time favorite rock albums is "Projections" by The Blues Project, ca. 1967. While many of the songs on the album were written by members of the group (especially Al Kooper and Steve Katz, who later were co-founders of Blood, Sweat & Tears) a couple of songs on it are great covers IMO:
"You Can't Catch Me," originally by Chuck Berry.
"Cheryl's Going Home," originally by Bob Lind (as the flip side of "Elusive Butterfly").
Just about every song on "Projections" is terrific, IMO.
