Bing Ji Ling – You Shook Me All Night Long (AC/DC cover)
New York City musician Quinn Luke, recording under a name that doubles as the Chinese word for “ice cream,” specializes in giving a ’60s/’70s old-school vibe to his soul-electronica. His cover of “You Shook Me All Night Long” is a masterpiece. Sounding uncannily like “Debra”-era Beck, he replaces the guitar with the clavinet and pumps out a vintage get-down groove that gives the song a whole new type of fun. No longer wearing t-shirt and jeans, “You Shook Me All Night Long” has on downtown finery, and it knows it’s looking fine.

Austra does a really awesome cover of Woodstock(Joni Mitchell)
I prefer this version to the original S.O.S. Band version.

I must say 2 very good covers by two very strong ladies.I prefer Siouxsie, but Debbie is very good too.

I know this is a covers' thread, but I've just heard this original for the first time, and it's pretty good.

Good cover of The Temptations song I wish It Would Rain..
It's from The Cougars a Toronto band from 1970. The song is found on the superb compilation
From: Jamaica To Toronto: Soul Funk & Reggae 1967-1974

Now here is a surprsise for me.
I always thought that Peter Tosh was the original for this song but apparently the Temptations did it first. It was never a hit for them.
I prefer the Tosh w/Jagger+Richards
