One of the most common ways people cover a song is by striping it down to acoustic guitar and vocals. Now some people think this it the true way to tell how good a song it. That is bull. It only shows how good the guitar/vocal parts are.
But what do you do when you start with acoustic/vocals? Well you turn it into a soulful blues rock tune. Bob Dylan has many songs that are just him and acoustic but Don’t Think Twice It’s Alright is one of the best. On the night of Dylan’s 30th anniversary concert Eric Clapton takes this song in a whole different direction. He takes almost all the Dylan out of it and inserts as much Clapton as he can.
