Phish and MMJ both do great covers of "Oh! Sweet Nuthin"; though not as good as the original.

MMJ's "Tyrone" is debatable.

Phish's "Cross Eyed and Painless" is awesome but it's hard to top the Talking Heads'.

Yeah, Phish does a pretty good job of C&P.

My favorite track off of Remain in Light is "The Great Curve" (makes me want to get tribal in the African motherland). Phish's version on 10.31.96 was okay but didn't come near the truly intoxicating polyrhythmic groove of the original.
