It'd be rare for me to post here, as it's rare for me to feel that any cover is better than the original (exceptions duly noted). Gonna contribute now.

Rock Me Mama (aka Wagon Wheel) ~ Bob Dylan (by way of Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup by way of Big Bill Broonzy??)

might not even qualify as a "good song"

Wagon Wheel ~ Old Crow Medicine Show

I like this OCMS video best because by its very nature this is an awesome live/bar song. Interesting how it came together.

As for the Rucker version? Meh. I'll take a string band any old day.
