Judas Priest's cover of "Diamonds and Rust".

Especially this version that they did live. It's incredible. Rob's still got it.

Are you kidding me? That musta been filmed in the mid 80's! I don't think he still sings like that now!
I prefer the version Priest did with Ripper, that was fucking awesome.

I thought I posted the one from Rising in the East in 2005

I'll fix it.

Edit: Fixed. The version from Rising in the East is acoustic like when they played it with Ripper.

Another cover I like is Emperor's cover of Bathory's "A Fine Day to Die".
