Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) did some amazing covers, including Dale Hawkins' "Susie-Q" (also covered by the Rolling Stones) and "I Heard It through the Grapevine" (Marvin Gaye's version being the most acclaimed recording, and it was also recorded by Gladys Knight & the Pips). There's some great rock in those covers.

To me, the best covers are when it's done completly differently, not just a band doing karioke. So:
Jimmy Eat World covering Firestarter by the Prodigy. It takes about 2 minutes to realise that it's firestarter, it's so different. A good one I heard was by Oasis. Suposedly, Liam decided that was they way to sing wonderwall after he heard it.
