This may be the best cover I have ever heard of this song. No, it may be the best version I have ever heard, bar none!

Wow, had to play that a second time, so I could capture a copy ! Thanks !! But what are those ladies standing up front playing ? I know it's a traditional Korean instrument, but what is it called ? Looks like a zither on steroids.

That is a very beautiful cover. Some songs are just meant for classical arrangement covers. The London Sympony did a beautiful version of Great Gig in the Sky. While it is very hard to beat the original improvised vocals, the violin wasn't too bad.

Riders On The Storm is also a ripe song for classcal coverage. Nigel Kennedy's cover here.

Caz, I enjoyed that very much. It's so interesting hearing American music from another cultures ears. I'm forwarding this to my kids band teacher as he will enjoy it!

OleBoy, that's Brit music I'm afraid. :>)

Penzoil3, those are an extreme variation of a Korean Harp. Check out this hip-hop Korean production doing Canon in D using them. Not much into this kind of music, but just to show you the instrument again.
