Who did it better?

Many songs get covered or re-interpreted, the covers often being more successful than the original.

Here are some cover versions of one song along with the original, let us know in the comments which is your favourite, or if you don’t like any of them.

“I’m So Glad” is song written by Skip James and released in 1931.

It has been covered by several acts including:

Cream on their 1966 debut album “Fresh Cream”.

The Litter included the song on their 1967 debut album “Distortions”.

Deep Purple used it at the end of a medley on their 1968 debut album “Shades Of Deep Purple” (listed as “Prelude: Happiness/I’m So Glad”).

Iggy and The Stooges on the 1999 album “Search and Destroy-The Detroit City Out-takes” and on the 2001 album “Wild Love (The Detroit City Rehearsals and More)”
