There are a few very good remakes:

"I shot the Sheriff" originally by Bob Marley, remade by Eric Clapton

"Be thankful for what you got" originally by William DeVaughn (1974), remade by MAssive Attack (1990)

Tori Amos made a nice cover album.

I can't remember more stright off my head.

Not exactly a number that began as a "rock song" but by the time Carlos Santana was done with it "Black Magic Woman" belonged to him. Fleetwood Mac went on to sharpen their pencil and create timeless ballads. Has anyone ever covered a Hendrix song, and BETTERED IT?!!! There are some people you don't mess with.

Little Wing covered by 'Derek and the Dominos'. Not Jimi, but to hear Eric and Duane going back and forth ... just a beautiful tune.

How about Tiffany's remake of "I saw him/her standing there"
Nothing like a classic
