Joe Cocker an Leon Russell Doing Dylan's "Girl From The North Country"

Bob Dylan doing "The Froggy Went A 'Courtin"

Don't know if you can call it a cover when someone does a different version of their own song, but I loved Bruce Hornsby's acoustic version of "The Valley Road" on the Nitty Gritty Dirt Bands' "Will The Circle Be Unbroken II"

The Rolling Stones doing Robert Johnsons' "Love in Vain"

Johnny Winter doing Bob's Highway 61 Revisited.

Sophie B. Hawkins version of Bob's "I Want You" from the 30th Anniversary Concert.

The Cowboy Junkies version of The Velvet Undergrounds' 'Sweet Jane'

Eric Claptons' (and I still have a love/hate thaing about Eric) "Don't Think Twice, It's Allright.
