Higher Ground was the first one that came to my mind.


Also love DMB's cover of Cortez The Killer at the Central Park concert with Warren Haynes. Probably my favorite cover ever.

I've always liked Chris Cornell's cover of Billie Jean. Nothing like the original:

Not really a country fan at all, but this is a great cover of a good ol '70's classic.

Love the original of this song but I feel like GNR just takes it to another level:
