If you read kottke.org, you've probably already seen this, but there's a collection of Buddy Holly covers coming out and I've been listening to the album pretty much non-stop. There are some clunkers (Sir Paul, I'm looking at you) but "Peggy Sue," "Rave On," "Crying, Waiting, Hoping" and a lot of others are really well done.
Of course, the songs themselves stand up to just about any treatment--major thirds and surf drums are pretty hard to screw up.
