Best Cover Songs

I really like Stevie Ray Vaughn's cover of Hendrix's Little Wing and also the Metallica cover. Franks Zappa's cover of Stairway to Heaven is also a really good cover, I really like the unique Zappa sound to it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

And after all... who thinks of Memphis Minnie when they hear the song's title?

Holy crap! Add this to my list. I forgot it was a cover, it stands as one of my favourite Led Zeppelin tracks.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
