came to mind were the tribute to George Harrison already linked here (Prince's guitar solo is incredible) and Heart's tribute to Led Zeppelin.

It's also hard to ignore Elton John's monumental "Candle in the Wind" tribute to Princess Diana . I think it's one of the best-selling singles of all-time.
