Impossible to name just one.
While my guitar gently weeps. The version from the tribute concert to George Harrison.

From the same concert Joe Brown playing I'll see you in my Dreams.

A few from Dylan. Tangled up in Blue, Girl from the Red River Shore, Blind Willie Mctell and Thunder on the Mountain, oh and Spirit on the Water.
