Lowdown Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Don't agree with the Bob Seger cover. No one beats him. Listen to his Live version from Live Bullet. Kickin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surfpup Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 The obvious... Hendrix's "All Along the Watchtower" However, I'd add that pretty much any cover Hendrix played (and he played a lot of them) was better than the original! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duane v Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 This cover by Gary Moore......The guitar solo smokes as well. [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWP37 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 "Steppin Stone"- Minor Threat. (originally recorded by the monkees). I really like both versions though. Can't say it's better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVOL! Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Don't agree with the Bob Seger cover. No one beats him. Listen to his Live version from Live Bullet. Kickin'. As a Michigan native, I am w/ you 100%. Nobody beats Bob Seger. His live version of Turn the Page is one of my favorite songs. Captures what it is like to be on tour.

Rocky4 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Outside Woman Blues by A.R.S. In My Time Of Dying by Zeppelin. It's usually the remake that sucks, but sometimes bands will score a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHO Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 heres a good one[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSUXdWCq5kk[/YOUTUBE] Ugh... Sorry but I couldn't disagree more. Slade represented all that was great and awesome about glam, while Quiet Riot represents all the bad. For me anyway. But to each their own, I suppose.

EVOL! Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Donovan's Season of the Witch done by Mike Bloomfield' date=' Al Kooper, Stephen Stills- SuperSession....[/quote'] Sorry, I love Mike Bloomfield's playing as much as the next cat, but that version lacks the tension that is in the Donovan version: mellow verses and then the chorus explodes.

I listened to both versions again before I posted and, I don't know why but, there's just something about the "Super Session" version that "catches" me..

Shnate McDuanus Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE] I think that the original is still better' date=' but damn! This one is hella good! Also, check this one out: [YOUTUBE']http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzfUDt_5L-s[/YOUTUBE] The authorship of this one is disputed (as there are questions over whether it was written by Elmore James or by Robert Johnson,) but for my money, this is the best interpretation of it out there: [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
