    Great Covers

    In keeping with the recent Great Guitarist thread, I thought a great covers thread would be interesting.

    Actually, it's rare that I enjoy covers - they have to be pretty special for me to give them a nod.

    Anyway, I'll start it off with this:

    There are some very good covers of Bruce around, I think this shows the quality of his song writing.

    Stevie Ray Vaughan giving Jimmy Hendrix a whirl.

    This gets me every time. These guys do some really clever covers, most of them more than a little bit silly.

    Mark Knopfler, Clapton, Collins & Sting - Money for Nothing

    This is a classic, yes its a D/S tune, but what a great line up for a cover.

    You dont get line ups like this any more, remember watching this one live..
