Covers of Solo Beatle Songs

Just bought a CD by Lorette Velvette which has an interesting cover of John's "Happy Xmas" which got me wondering. What others? What are some of your favorites?

Here's a few:
Leon Russell - "Beware Of Darkness"
The Smithereens - "It Don't Come Easy"
Phone Snow - "Every Night"
Faces - "Maybe I'm Amazed"
Marianne Faithfull - "Working Class Hero"

 

Mary Chapin Carpenter - Grow Old With Me

 

Guns N' Roses--Live and Let Die

 

One of the Dakota Demos fleshed out a bit more by Fastball's Miles Zuniga.

 

Roxy Music - Jealous Guy
Bowie - Working Class Hero
Lou Reed - Mother
Lou Reed - Jealous Guy

 

Corrine Bailey Rae - I'm Losing You

 

Patti Smith (with her bassist Tony Shanahan) covered "Oh Yoko" at a Lennon tribute concert that was officially released.
The last few years, Patti has also been singing "Beautiful Boy" live.

 

I really like Brian Wilson's "Wanderlust" from the Art of McCartney. Thought he and B. B. King's "On the Way" - both solo Paul, were wonderful contributions (and completely opposite approaches).

That should be PHOEBE Snow - "Every Night"
(You probably already knew that)

 

"Instant Karma"-U2
"Mother"-David Bowie
"Isolation"-Joe Cocker
"#9 Dream"-REM
"Grow Old With Me"-Glen Campbell
"Cold Turkey"-Cheap Trick

 

"Tomorrow" - David Cassidy (which is a pretty darn good cover version!!!)

 

The Black Crowes - Jealous Guy

 

The Temporaries - It Don't Come Easy

 

The Shazam - Helen Wheels

 

There's actually quite a lot of covers out there.

Start looking up discographies of various artists covering John, Paul, Ring and George - that's where you can find a lot that way.

 

He also covered "Let Me Roll It" on one of his 2011 Spinning Wheel tours.

 

"That Would Be Something" - Grateful Dead

 

The Black Crowes - Beware Of Darkness

 

This one is really good.

 

For something different...
