IMO only Baker Street and From The Beginning are superior by the original artist.

Donjr gets it with Cassandra Wilson. Spin up Wichita Lineman. And I like Jealous Guy by Roxy Music too. Also dig Love Hurts by Joan Jett.

Aretha Franklin practicallhy owns Otis Redding's "Respect."

Jim Dandy off of the High On The Hog Album Black Oak Arkansas.

Hootie and the Blowfish doing Bill Wither's 'Use Me'. Sorry, thought it was a nice nod. Also, I can't get enough of hearing Pat Traver's version of (take your pick) 'Born Under a Bad Sign' off the "Crash and Burn" album. I think I've actually refoamed woofers due to a few cuts off of that album...or was it Queen's 'Dragon Attack'. Not sure.
