Default Best Song Covers

This had to be done.

OK the best is clearly "All Along the Watchtower" by Hendrix, but their are clearly some other good ones.

Yes - I am weak-minded. And a moron.

Oh, but I'm also a Bluegrass fan...so maybe that's why I like it?

Nah, you're right - I'm just a weak-minded moron.

I don't think they ever recorded it, but Pearl Jam did a pretty sick live cover of "Baba O'Riley" at MSG (Teenage Wasteland to you noobs). Pearl Jam does some pretty sick covers in general.

I would have to say that Hendrix's cover of Watchtower is my favorite though.
