China Cat/ I Know You Rider - the original by the Greatful Dead is good, but this rendition by the group Great Caesars Ghost is superb, especially "I Know You Rider":

Song: Poor Poor Pitiful Me
Original Artist: Warren Zevon

---

Cover Artist: Linda Ronstadt




Linda's best live version on Youtube is just the second half of the song, but it's so damn good it's all you need.

Waddy Wachtel just kills it on this song.

Well, I'm not saying this cover is "better" but damn, it's pretty equal in my view.

And the original is done by none other than.......Steely Dan.....!

Bob Dylan wrote, and his original is great, but I liked PP&M's version even more:

The original is a really good song.

But Van Halen took it to another level.
