I still can't find the name of the Marc Almond album with the Hammill covers, but I found this Hammill quote:

"Marc Almond has done a couple of covers, a few people in Europa have done them. I own all the publishing. It's never really been addressed, as I haven't had the time to go out and tout the songs."
 Peter Hammill

yes, but there was a whole album of Hammill covers by Mark Almond which I almost bought once, and I can't find it anymore

Don't know about that one but I'll ask my brother, he's a big Marc Almond fan.

Cradle of Filth totally ruined Iron Maiden's Hallowed be Thy Name. A band named The Showdown did a decent cover of Kansas' Carry On, Wayward Son, off the album Temptation Come My Way.

Is that the magnificient Phil Pope of the Heebee Geebees doing the cover? If you can find it, seek out  the Heeebee Geebee's Never Mind The Originals Here's The Heebee Geebees. Here Phil Pope well outshines Weird Al for pastiches of rock songs, e.g. Boring Song by Status Quid (pt on Status Quo), Meaningless Songs In Very High Voices (the Heebees pt on  The Bee Gees)

But I love the Heebee Geebees  -  though I think Angus Deayton (centre) is probably trying to forget them LOL

^ The Heebee Geebees were regulars on Spitting Image - hence the source of confusion.
 
I particularly like their PeeCee's Too Depressed To Commit Suicide:

There are a couple of Heebee songs on the BBC Records release of the radio show Radioactive. (The LP hasa couple of releatively weak Phil Pope tunes. However, from the radio comedy series, my favourite was Pil Pope delicious mickey take of Squeeze's Up The Junction. Here retitled Up The Club - with lines such as "I took precautions, I gave her a false name"). We were lead to believe here in the radio station, that the follow up to Never Mind The Originals, had a court injunction slapped on it by Dire Straights within an hour of being released - so if you got a copy it is worth a few bob - just like that album which used an outrageous number of samples from Abba recordings - was that Bill Drummond's Justified Ancients of Mumu?

Many version of 21st Century Schizoid Man keep coming up, but Voivod's was the most spot on.

But this is fun too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWS3ofzuiMU

It was! 'The Queen And I' from 'What the F**k is Going On' sampled ABBA's 'Dancing Queen' with hilarious results, and of course they were forced to destroy the pressing, with the inevitable and desired publicity results. Ah, great times, those.
