Awesome choice! A lot of other good ones mentioned in this thread too. I think Hendrix's version of "All Along the Watchtower" is a million times better than the original.

Here's a few more good ones -

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher Ground (Stevie Wonder cover)
Code Seven - Boys of Summer (Don Henley cover)
Johnny Cash - Rusty Cage (Soundgarden cover)
John Lennon - Ain't That a Shame (Fats Domino cover)
The Rolling Stones - England's Newest Hitmakers album - covers early rock hits by various artists
