I was hoping for original artist remakes but I really found nothing.  Guess it will be a very short thread.  :(

This is my favorite performance of Kashmir - by Page and Plant and backed up the the Egyptian Orchestra. 

Rarely to live performances blow away an original recording - but this one by far kills it.  And I do prefer this one over the original recording.
