Normally Im a live and let live person but if you think aerosmith version of Come Together is better than the original then you should be on your knees staring into a lime filled ditch taking your last breath.

Cars - Fear Factory (Gary Numan)
Land of Confusion - Disturbed (Phil Collins)

While I like Type O’s take on Cinnamon Girl and Summer Breeze, they are not better versions of the original. And as much as I like Tool, no way their version of No Quarter is better than the original.

Great, but not better. Chilton's voice has no equal (I'm saying he could rock that Allmanesque tribute better).

Beatles- Washington Coliseum 1964

Long Tall Salley, originally recorded by Little Richard

Roll Over Beethoven
, originally recorded by Chuck Berry

Twist and Shout, originally recorded by the Top Notes then the Isley Brothers

To me, it's amazing how good they sound with the equipment and sound system they were playing with, not to mention they could barely here themselves. Just 3 years later they made Sargent Pepper...
