Here's a few by my favorite band of all time - Whiskeytown.
First up, from their searing ACL set from 1998, "Dancing with the Women at the Bar"...a track from their 1997 album Stranger's Almanac. Though this live version is radically different than the album cut.
Also from their appearance on ACL, "Yesterday's News", also a track from Stranger's Alamanac.
And lastly, again from ACL, is "The Battle". This one never made any records, but it was always a live favorite. It really shows off one of the things that made them so great, the harmonizing between Ryan Adams & Caitlin Cary.

Hair composer Galt MacDermot kicks off this 40s-like piano vamp with solid drum backing
I love that Mini-Moog noodling...one of the many side projects James Brown's horn players concocted while having off-and-on creative differences with the Godfather.
More than some novelty factor cover, the Hot 8 Brass Band does their signature New Orleans second-line big band flavored version of Marvin Gaye's famous near death swan song hit, "Sexual Healing"

well I don't remember seeing any country on here so just in case anyone out there hasn't heard Dwight Yoakam I'm gonna put a few of his here...I like classic-sounding country or at least country that doesn't sound like Faith Hill, Dixie Chicks, Brooks & Dunn, Shania Twain, Tim McGraw...you get the idea. Anyway outside of Hank Williams(Sr.) Dwight Yoakam might be my favorite country artist around. (Other favorites include Lefty Frizzell, Buck Owens, Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson etc.)
The Sad Side Of Town
Guitars, Cadillacs
Two Doors Down
Nothing

Here are three from Sebadoh/ Folk Implosion founder and original bassist co-founder of Dinosaur Jr.--- Lou Barlow.
THe first one is a cover of the Ratt song Round And Round...spine chilling rendition
Mary...you'll either find this blasphemous or sweet in a quirky way. Here's hoping for the latter

I found this mix that I did with a buddy a couple of years ago involving Mexican, Spanish, Cuban and Los Angeles based records from the 60s and 70s. It ranges from garage rock ballads to covers to funk. I figured that I'd share.
