I second Brook Benton and offer the following as being better than the originals:

Dazed And Confused - Led Zeppelin

It's All Over Now - Rolling Stones

Hey Joe - Jimi Hendrix

Hush - Deep Purple

It Was a Very Good Year - Frank Sinatra

Crossroads - Cream

Little Red Rooster - Rolling Stones

That'll do for now.

If you mean the Sammy Cahn song, I would imagine Sinatra would have been the first to record it.
