Jeff Beck – A Day in the Life
Lachy Doley – Voodoo Child
Someone I follow on the Tweeter was a little "horrified at the mangling of a rare and no longer manufactured instrument" in this video, but took it back once they saw how it worked.
It's a pretty fascinating adaptation.
Soul Asylum – Ooh La La
Hey, let's have a fun covers week, why not? This is a pretty great start.
The White Stripes – Jolene
...yeah.

Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band – Because The Night
My first exposure to this one wasn't Patti Smith, or even The Boss ... It was the 10,000 Maniacs rendition played constantly on "alt radio" in the mid-90's. I think I like this version best.

Lissie – Pursuit Of Happiness
One of the more unexpected cover versions of a song, and one where I really like both the original and the reimagining.
Paging meat, E-6 and Algonad if I remember correctly.

Red Hot Chili Peppers – Higher Ground
I may have heard this version before I heard Stevie's.
