Rickie Lee Jones - Marty Balin's "Comin' Back To Me"
Matthew Sweet & Susannah Hoffs - BeeGees "Run To Me"
Eva Cassidy - "What a Wonderful World"
Sarah McLachlan - Tom Waits' "Ole 55"
Victor Wooten's version of Naima by John Coltrane. Available on his album titled "What Did He Say". Incredible Bass and acoustic Guitar, etc.
Dylans I Was Young When I Left Home by Antony Hagerty and Bryce Dessner (National)from the Dark Was The Night compilation. Antony and the Johnsons also do a beautiful Knockin On Heavens Door on the I'm Not There soundtrack. If you have not heard that soundtrack I highly recommend it.
