While we're on this thread... has any of you heard a "Stairway to Heaven"
cover recorded circa 1985 by a band going by the name of Far Corporation ?
Interesting tidbit : Bobby Kimball, Steve Lukather and David Paich (all 3 of
Toto fame) were among the 6+ members of the band. The cover was nonetheless
very impressive and quite good. The rest of the album is so-so (some tracks
are interesting, though). In fact, the funny thing is that this was the very
first version I heard of StH. Of course, since then I've heard & bought the
original Led Zep version (as well as several albums of the band).
