Favorite Tribute Albums?


I'm a big fan of Tribute and Cover Albums. Some of my favorites include: Holly Cole's Temptation (Tom Waits covers); Poet - A Tribute To Townes Van Zandt; Till the Night Is Gone- A Tribute to Doc Pomus; Timeless - A Tribute To Hank Williams; Bob Marley A Tribute The Riddim Of A Legend and This One's for Him A Tribute to Guy Clark. I would enjoy hearing others recommendations.

Postcards for The Hanging- Grateful Dead doing Dylan

Hard Luck Child- Rory Blocks tribute to Skip James she also did one for Son House, Bukka White, Mississippi Fred MCdowell, John Hurt, Rev Gary Davis, Bessie Smith and recently Bob Dylan that I havent heard.  If you like Delta Blues they are all great but since Skip James is my fav old dead blues guy thats the one I pick for the best
