And of course The Beatles' "Sun King" is sweet, but that's not a cover...

I've also stumbled across some amateur recordings on Youtube which were good. But most stuff there is nothing to write home about.
Well.... I really liked the Mick Fleetwood Bluesband with Rick Vito. Rick did a fantastic job on Peters songs. I especially liked the way he solved the problem of three guitars on Albatross. And his version of Love That Burns really got to me.
He overruled everything that Gary Moore, Bernie Marsden or Jim King have done.
