Best Version of Fav. Songs:
Since we've been talking a lot about music lately, let's hear your favorite versions of particular songs. For instance, there are many version sof "Symphathy for the Devil" out there but my all time favorite version of the trackis from Circus. Two others I think are the best:
U2's version of "Bad" from Live Aid
Crowes "My Morning Song" @ Hammerstein on Easter Sunday 05' (19 minutes, I can send if anybody interested).
So, what you got?

Simple Kind of Man - Shinedown......Used that one for a Scout Graduation Presentation...I think it blows Skynard's version away. also think it speaks right to what we're trying to instill in the kids.
Whiskey in a Jar - Metallica
Crazy Train - Pat Boone....nuff said on that one 
and anything by Richard Cheese 
There's dozens more...I'm just having a mental block right now |

I'd have to agree with the Allman Bros version of "Stormy Monday".
Stevie Ray's "Voodoo Chile" comes to mind as well.
James Taylor's versions of just about any other songwriters material, including, but not exclusive to, Carol King's "You've Got a Friend" and Buddy Holly's "Everyday".
Beatles' version of "Twist And Shout".
Hendrix version of "Watchtower".
The list goes on and on, to be sure.
Sometimes, though, there's just no way to improve on the original: "Turn The Page".

Hahaha. That is a great cover. The original is good too of course, but that is a great cover. I used to sing that one at parties. People loved it.
