Deep Purple did 'Help' and 'We Can Work It Out' in that dragged out, retooled manner of Vanilla Fudge. The Fudge themselves did 'Eleanor Rigby' and 'Ticket To Ride' on their debut.

And Steve Howe, when he was in Tomorrow, did a rather pedestrian, note-for-note cover of 'Strawberry Fields Forever'. The same goes for Fudge-esque act that preceded Uriah Heep (featuring Ken Hensley and Lee Kerslake) called The Gods, who did a pointless near note perfect cover of 'Hey Bulldog'.
 
Does Phil Collins' cover of 'Tomorrow Never Knows' count (again it adds little to the original, imho)?
 
Lone Star did a pretty good cover of 'She Said She Said' on their debut too.

I know they did Donovan's "Lalena" on their third, but Im pretty sure they did "We Can Work It Out" on their 2nd.

I am looking for Beatles covers by Prog(-related) bands. So far I have found the following tracks:
 
Kin Ping Meh - Come together
Spooky Tooth - I am the walrus
Pugh's Place - Drive my car
Sandy Coast - Eleanor rigby
 
Can you help me find more? Thanks in advance.
