Talk about a difficult question. I'm going to have to give that some thought. Your choices are solid though!

Nah, only Ringo did covers.

(Although Weird Al has been known to do covers of George's songs:

YouTube - This song's just six words long (full version)-"Weird Al" Y.

Hmmmm.

From Wiki:

"Got My Mind Set on You" is a song written by Rudy Clark and originally recorded by James Ray in 1962.

It is best known for the cover version released by George Harrison in 1987.

Like John said, very good question, and tough to answer.
Lennon - Woman
McCartney - Put It There (I love the music he made with Elvis)
Harrison - When We Was Fab (Great stuff when he collaborated with Lynne)
Starr - It Don't Come Easy (I dig the All-Starr Band stuff, but this was his best effort by far)

[Filmmaker]

John Lennon: Nobody Told Me
Paul McCartney with Wings: Let 'Em In
Paul McCartney Solo: Press
George Harrison: My Sweet Lord Isn’t It a Pity?

I'm sorry to say I'm not familiar enough with Ringo's solo catalog to make a choice...

Ten years later edit (1/13/21), as I became more familiar with GH’s solo work. “Isn’t It a Pity” is simply devastating.

Ringo - It Don't Come Easy
George - My Sweet Lord
Paul - Band on the Run (w/the Wings)
John - oh I dunno, he has like 5 real big ones that are all great, I think I like the edge on "Working Class Hero"

[Belloche]

John - Jealous Guy
Paul - Monkberry Moon Delight
George - My Sweet Lord
Ringo - Nothing is jumping out at me.

For me, at current, your favorite Ringo is mine as well.

My Favorite George is "Cheer Down."

My Favorite John is "Instant Karma!" (And, no, that doesn't bother me.)

My Favorite Paul is "Wonderful Christmastime." (And, no, that doesn't bother me either.)
