Donny Hathaway's Jealous Guy is great, never heard it before, thanks. I think Frankie Miller has an even better version Jealous Guy.

I have about a hundred covers I like but I think I'll just post some more great beatles covers.

It almost seem obligatory for every soul artist to cover a beatles song, here's a few of the better ones.

Wilson Pickett Hey Jude. I don't really like wilson much, but I think this is a pretty good cover.

Aretha Franklin - Eleanor Rigby. I think the studio version is even better, but the video is more entertaining to watch then an album cover.

Al Green I Wanna Hold Your Hand. Short and sweet.

I got a bunch of reggae covers of the beatles but I don't really feel like weeding em out right now, lots are good. Trojan Records put out a two or three reggae beatles albums that have some gems, and plenty of non-Trojan reggae covers. In the reggae vibe but from a rasta punk band I always like the Bad Brains Day Tripper, it's mashed up with the Stones She Comes in Rainbows.

I like to play covers of songs daughter loves on the theory that it will help her distinguish the similarities and differences between things. She loves the beatles and Blackbird has always been a song she enjoys. It was fun to see her light up with delight and sing along to both these versions.

Roslyn Sweet & The Paragons

Billy Preston

I haven't even dipped my toe into rock or country beatles covers, but I think I've done enough.
