Not necessarily, and I'll invoke some more Willie here, but "Georgia on My Mind"* is similar yet distinct when both Willie and Ray Charles sing it; same as when Willie and Arlo sing "The City of New Orleans." Willie didn't change the style or the pace of the songs. His voice is just much different from the others.
Merle Haggard's "Momma Tried" was covered pretty well by The Dead.

On his new box, Johnny Cash nails Neil Young's Heart of Gold. I mean, NAILS it.
And Watchtower would have been nothing if Hendrix hadn't picked it up. That said, please, everyone, put it down. It should never be played again by anyone, especially Bob Weir.
