Wakeman's extended solo on Where is This Dream of Your Youth from the Strawbs album Just a Collection of Antiques and Curios is breathtaking.
And it was recorded live.

 absolutely! And his solo on the studio track of The Hangman And The Papist, while not as technical, is pretty good too.

There's a guy on YouTube who performs it. You can watch him and then decide if it's too much for the Caped Crusader to handle.

There's probably a lot of cover versions of it. You need to be more specific.

I have three favourites, funnily enough from the three great symphonic prog bands: the Knife, Roundabout and Tarkus.

Here are 30 of my favorite Hammond organ songs. The top spot goes to Jon, the Lord of Hammond.
Jon Lord - Deep Purple - Highway Star Jon Lord - Deep Purple - April Jon Lord - Deep Purple - Perfect StrangersJon Lord - Deep Purple - Hard Loving Man Jon Lord - Deep Purple - Fireball Jon Lord - Deep Purple - Solitaire Jon Lord - Deep Purple - Time to Kill Ken Hensley - Uriah Heep - July Morning Ken Hensley - Uriah Heep - Look at Yourself Ken Hensley - Uriah Heep - Gypsy Ken Hensley - Uriah Heep - Circle of Hands Ken Hensley - Uriah Heep - Sunrise Ken Hensley - Uriah Heep - Easy Livin' John Evan - Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick, Part II Rick Wright - Pink Floyd - A Saucerful of Secrets (Celestial Voices)* Tony Banks - Genesis - The Knife Tony Banks - Genesis - The Musical Box Tony Banks - Genesis - Watcher of the Skies Don Airey - Deep Purple - A Simple Song Don Airey - Deep Purple - Above and Beyond Rick Wakeman - Yes - Roundabout Rick Wakeman - Yes - Close to the Edge Rick Wakeman - Strawbs - The Hangman and the Papist Rick Wakeman - Strawbs - A Glimpse of Heaven Rick Wakeman - Strawbs - Sheep Keith Emerson - ELP - Tarkus Keith Emerson - ELP - Hoedown Phil Lanzon - Uriah Heep - Speed of Sound Peter Baumann - Tangerine Dream - Ultima Thule Part 1 Steve Schroyder or Edgar Froese - Tangerine Dream - Sunrise in the Third System *This one I'm not sure whether it's a Farfisa organ or a Hammond organ, as Rick played both on the song. I also love Rick's organ on Echoes after the noise section, but that's definitely a Farfisa.

Keith Emerson's solo in the second part of Karn Evil 9's first impression has always stood out to me as something special.

Keith on “Tarkus” or “America” (with The Nice) spring to mind.
