I think you'll find it's Joe Cocker's Just Like A Woman

Iainso, I agree with you about Hendrix. Fight!

I would also put all of these in between Hendrix and Ferry:

Chimes Of Freedom - Bruce Springsteen
Absolutely Sweet Marie - Jason & The Scorchers
Down Along The Cove - Johnny Jenkins
I'll Be Your Baby Tonight - The Hollies
Every Grain Of Sand - Emmylou Harris

It's the whole of Donovan's career.

nick cave - wanted man
chris wilson - it takes a lot to laugh -[melbourne bluesman]
bruce springsteen - i want you - live track
johnny winter- highway 61
fairport sandy deny - I'll keep it with mine

but given that Bob usually plays Watchtower a la Hendrix you gotta give it to Jimi

stones- like a rolling stone

All of them

Jim James and Calexico is rather fab, particularly in conjuction with the funeral scene in I'm Not There

as is Just Like a Woman" by Charlotte Gainsbourg and Calexico

For shame.

It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.
It's Spirit's Like A Rolling Stone.

Now gimme two sides of foolscap like that. Before prep.

..has to be up there.

But Bryan Ferry's Hard Rain is definately up there too. That said Roxy's versions of Jealous Guy and Eight Miles High are atrocious...

What does Heppo know? This is the best cover version of a song Dylan *almost* wrote.

"Weird Al" Yankovic clip

Dylan does Dr Suess

Adele's cover of "Make You Feel My Love". She like, so pwns that song!

Now. Come back when you're prepared to take this seriously.

had several of good covers of the soundtrack/album released:

Jack Johnson - Mama You've Been On My Mind
Jim James & Calexico - Goin' To Acapulco
Ramblin' Jack Elliott - Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues

....off the top of my head...

The loathsome version of I'll Be Your Baby Tonight by Robert Palmer featuring UB40.

Any other contenders?

has to be that man Bryan Ferry's version of Sympathy for the Devil from These Foolish Things

The Ramones - My Back Pages.
Sufjan Stevens - Ring Them Bells.
Stephen Malkmus - Ballad of a Thin Man.
Indigo Girls - Tangled Up in Blue.
Beck - Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat.

rates a mention surely?

I think XTC were channelling the spirit of Vic Reeves on this version

A B side but bloody marvellous. The singing is so heartfelt
