All three are quite good, but I'd go with "Perfect Strangers", which BTW sounds a lot like the original.

Since when did they cover Dark Side??? I have to hear that.

but i thought that the number of the beast covers were pretty bad, Labrie clearly doesnt know the lyrics to a few of the songs

but that Zeppelin medley is badass

They coverd Dark Side on there Octavarium tour at the end of last year, should be out as an official bootleg sometime this year.

Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

It ruled beyond belief

 I went with Purple.I like the Zep medley too but out of all the covers on '...Seasons' I found the DP one to be most memorable. And I hated the Elton John covers. I'll never understand why they felt the need to include those.

Apparently Dream Theater have now covered the entire Made in Japan-Deep Purple. Petrucci is great so I look forward to hearing his take on the Child in Time solo. I just hope he doesnīt shred all over the place. As for Labrie singing Child in Time and hitting those high notes.... Iīm a bit sceptical.

Itīs like someone else on the board mentoned, Who wants a copy of the Mona Lisa?

You should here Michael Angelo Batio's cover of Deep Purple. I cant remember if it was Burn or Fireball, but it took me 2 listens to figure out that it was a Deep Purple cover. I think he played the entire song in the first 5 seconds. Talk about emotionless shredding . I thought to myself "Thats why you practice other things than just speed exercises"
