Covers better than originals.

Joe Cocker - With a little help from my friends
Jimi Hendrix - All along the watchtower
The Sundays - Wild Horses

Krokus - Ballroom Blitz
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Call me the Breeze
Joan Jett - I love Rock and Roll
Motley Crue - Helter Skelter

Watchtower by Hendrix is the all time in my opinion.

I had no idea Call me the Breeze was a cover.

A few years ago I was helping a friend of mine and his 14 year old son clean out an eviction apartment. We found some old 8 Trac tapes and dude asked what they were. That started a conversation eventually led to me saying I think I like Motley Crue's version of Smokin in the boys room better than Brownsville station. He said "yeah, the original is always better".

Lulz.

I'm undecided but I really like Crues version.

My 2nd favorite SNL skit.

 

[NorCalVol67]

And my favorite. Belushi is my favorite and this SNL skit is nothing but irony.

My 2nd favorite SNL skit.

I remember watching that and at the time I was a little offended for Joe, but I saw Joe interviewed about it and he
was not offended, his friends were, so after that I appreciated how well John imitated Joe.

I remember watching this one too, and it turned out to be a very poignant scene.

Krokus - Ballroom Blitz Good, but not better
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Call me the Breeze Absolutely
Joan Jett - I love Rock and Roll Agree
Motley Crue - Helter Skelter Good, but not better

Watchtower by Hendrix is the all time in my opinion. Spot On!

I am a fan of Bruce, but this is one of the few times a cover is better.

Manfred Mann's version is the best.

Covers better than originals.

Joe Cocker - With a little help from my friends Awesome
Jimi Hendrix - All along the watchtower Frigg'n Awesome
The Sundays - Wild Horses Gotta give this one to the RS's

 

[Behr]

Well, you're just wrong about Ballroom Blitz and I'm plugging my ears so I don't hear another word about it.

 

[malinoisvol]

Sometimes you just gotta turn the page, just not with Metallica.

@Behr I would have paid money to hear Mel Tillis cover Benny and the Jets.
