What are some songs that were originally made famous by one artist then done by another that you like just as much if not more than the original? Tool's version of Led Zeppelin's No Quarter is great.



Here's a live video as well

When I heard this version of No Quarter, I freaked. Tool did it justice and Justin Chancellor's playing/effect work is great. Everything is just so dynamic it makes it hard to stop listening.

[ValeriusCrow]

That's just PERFECT. "Roundabout" sounds astonishing!

 

[LKTraz]

That's just PERFECT. "Roundabout" by Yes never sounded that good!

Wow. The bassist is obviously heavily influenced by Chris Squire. Same fingering, sound and style. Sure didn't hurt that he was playing a 4003 Ric either. Hell he even walked the stage and moved like Squire!

 

[waveman]

Yes, that was a great performance.
