Ramble On - Zepparella
When the Levee Breaks - Artimus Pyle & Jimmy Hall

I actually really like Zepparella's version of When the Levee Breaks. Check out John Campbell's version too.

Manic Depression - Robin Trower

I wouldn't mind hearing that one myself. Also the version that Jeff Beck & Seal did is possibly better than the original. Really kicks arse.

Thank you Brother. I have been trying to find this song for around a year incorrectly remembering it as All Along The Watchtower.

---

You're very welcome! It's amazing isn't it? This song has been covered by everybody but this version stands apart.

That Smell - -3 Doora Down
Use Me -- Hootie
Baby What You Want Me To Do - Wishbone Ash
Shacky Ground - Etta James and Delbert McClinton
Statesboro Blues - ABB
Grits Ain't Groceries/Shout Bamalama - Wet Willie

I Don't Wanna Be a Soldier - Mad Season

Never got to see M. Hedges.

OP, these guys might not suit your (or your audience's) taste, but maybe something from Me First And The Gimme Gimmees?

They are sort of a punk all-star cover band and have a huge catalog.

Rocket Man

Jolene
Mandy
The Boxer

Come Together - The Beatles
