This is a great topic. I find I' m often playing those alternative cover versions of familiar songs- and these reinterpretations bring new meaning to the originals. I could probably name dozens, but I' ll mention just a half dozen favorite covers for now: Whiskey in the Jar- Jerry Garcia and David Grisham Killing the Blues - Robert Plant and Alison Kraus Pilgrim - Emmy Lou Harris Sugaree - Danny Kalb Corrina, Corinna - Bob Dylan And I wish I could remember the name of the person who recommended this song on another thread some while ago - I 'd like to thank them for adding this wonderful song to my playlist- (Dylan's) Dark Eyes by Judy Collins
