Good thread. This by Diana Krall is miles and mile better than the original.

Manfred Mann's Blinded by the Light compared to Bruce Springsteen. And a controversial one.

Agree with this Macca. The Paul McCartney one is good but this one is better.

I know! Much as I love SRV he's not Jimi. Best version of this is the live one on Hendrix In The West.

Oooh, no. Original for me Vocals are better with EJ. The original is good, and I knew this would create a discussion.

My answer to this is always Alex Chilton's drunken take on 'Boogie Shoes'. (The best cover version is of course Hendrix's version of 'All Along the Watchtower', but someone's already nominated that). Anyone who thinks that Hendrix's version 'Little Wing' has ever been bettered by anyone, ever, is Just Plain Wrong and should be banned.

Not just his playing it's his voice too. Although he hated his own singing by all accounts.
