Not that it matters to me much but shouldn't this be in the "general music discussions" section? I can't think of many(if any) examples in prog unfortunately.

| It was in 60ties, but really love Hazlewood & Sinatra duet in "Some Velvet Morning". Rowland S. Howard and Lydia Lunch have also made really great version of that song too. |

Pretty good cover band (Keep Me Hanging On).... My favorite would easily be Three Dog Night, who I've grown to like very much over the last couple years. |
