Hard Working Americans does an amazing cover of "Straight to Hell."

I like Wilson Pickett's cover of "Hey Jude" better than The Beatles' version.

I'll go with Jimi Hendrix's cover of All Along the Watchtower over Bob Dylan's.

The Who Summertime Blues over Eddie Cochran's.

The Dylan stuff could fill its own thread.
