** The Meat Puppets themselves did this with "Hair" by Monitor, in a strange sort of way: Strictly speaking the Meat Puppets version ''is'' the original recording: Monitor wrote "Hair" during the sessions for their self-titled (and [[OneBookAuthor only]]) album, but felt that their own performance wasn't fast or intense enough, so they taught Meat Puppets the song and had them record it in their stead. Thus, the Meat Puppets version was initially included on Monitor's album, but became more widely heard when it was included as a bonus track to ''Meat Puppets''.
