Part of what made Johnny Cash so great was not just the songs he wrote that became classics, but the fact that so often when he recorded someone elses song his version became the classic.

Elvis was the same way.

There was a time when Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson were the go to guys for songwriting that was made famous by others.
