This is the best cover in the history of covers. Harmonicas have nothing on Hendrix's guitars.

Spooky - Dusty Springfield

Renegades of Funk - Rage Against the Machine (Afrika Bambaataa and the Soulsonic Force cover) This was on their album Renegades which is all covers (they cover Minor Threat, MC5, The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen etc. There's some good stuff here)
Landslide - The Smasing Pumpkins (Fleetwood Mac cover)
Dancing With Myself - Blink 182 (Billy Idol Cover)
Goody Two Shoes - Unwritten Law (Adam Ant cover) (these last two songs were on an album called "Before You Were Punk" which is new wave tunes covered by punk bands. There also a "Vol. 2")
There is a soundtrack to a movie called I Am Sam and all the songs are Beatles covers (I know Aimee Mann does one of them and I think the Black Crowes, Rufus Wainwright etc)

I'm sure I can come up some more later.
