Listen to Heart of the sunrise by Yes covered by the California Guitar Trio from the album CG3+2, they played it with acoustic guitars! but also includes bass and drums

One to make many in the forum cringe:

The Sissors Sisters version of PF's Comfortably Numb - which I personally quite like

OK, Thank you.

 

I can't remember any cover now... I'll think about it. I suppose most non-prog bands aren't fond of prog or brave enough.

Good thread, BTW

the cover version is called King of twilight although it has pieces from cryin in the dark..the song appeared as a b side for the single called aces high but can be found again in cd version in the EDDIE ARCHIVES collectors box...

Edit: Here is a link to a bit of it: http://www.ironmaiden.com/discography/audio/bsides/Eddie's%2 0Archive%20(5%20of%206)08.wma

Bah did not work just go to http://www.ironmaiden.com/discography/bestbsides.php then and click on the song
