I know you'll all hate this but here is a cover of Eleanor Rigby by Australian Band Zoot in 1970. It''s fairly heavy for it's time. It was a big hit here and I actually bought the single (I was 11). The band has Rick (Jessie's Girl) Springfield on lead and Beeb Birtles (Little River Band) on bass. I actually love it!!!

Here it is....

sorry, but i don't like this version at all. where is the tragedy in the music which clearly is in the lyrics? the cover version by Vanilla Fudge is much much better

the Vanilla Fudge cover is better than this one, I agree but I still liked this Zoot cover but then I like this kinda 70s hard rock sound.

the idea of Mother Gong doing a Genesis cover is weird in the first place, and the result is as weird as was to be expected. thanks for posting this; I thought I had heard everything of Mother Gong.  apparently not

Bryan Ferry did at least 2 solo albums of covers that were pretty good imho.....These Foolish Things and Another Time Another Place.

I like this one....the great Wetton on bass.
