I only listen to the second disc because it's a re-release of Garage Days Re-Re-Visited. I didn't much care for the first disc.

Hmmm....
I would have to say Nitty Gritty Dirt Bands cover of Jerry Jeff Walker's 'Mr. Bojangles' is probably my all-time favorite cover.
Alison Krauss singing Bad Company's 'Oh Atlanta' is up there too.

Jimmy Little's "Messenger" is a cover album of great songs from some off Australia's best artists.
Every one of these tracks is done so well I think they are better than the originals.
