I like the covers that Ars Nova and Gerard did of ELP,Wakeman,Trace and PFM tracks that appeared on a compilation called Keyboards Triangle. Great version of Tarkus by Ars Nova and a typically high octane version of Toccata by Gerard. Sadly can't find any links.

Originally on McLaughlin's psychedelic jazz album Devotion - note carlos Santana/Buddy Miles covered Marbles from the same album (admittedly MIles played drums on Devotion).
