This cover of Sign On The Window by Sarah Jarosz is absolutely stunning. I'd never heard of her until I saw this but it seems that as well as doing her own material she does tons of covers, including unusual choices like Prince and Billie Eilish.

I don't think I've ever heard Dylan's version of "If Not For You", but George Harrison's is great.

george is the best , olivia newton johns version is horrid and should be avoided.

I prefer Glen Campbell's version of George Harrison's version tbh.

Johnny Winter did a ripping version of Highway 61 with some sharp slide guitar.
