Cohen is brilliant, but Buckley's version is even better. His voice is pretty spectacular.

Absolutely.
Who originally did "Alabama Song"? Also, haven't heard Lennon's "Stand," but how could it possibly top King's?

Their debut is pretty much all covers/borrowed riffs and whatnot. "Good Times, Bad Times" is the only 100% original tune.
