I am a great Johnny Cash fan,That is an awesome cover,I was saddened to see him so frail but then he had such a turbulant life when he was younger and into all the different drugs and booze which I suppose tells when you get older.

Bad Jen Bad.
You get back out from behind that couch young lady.....

[The_bluester (Paul)]

OK, everyone else is posting up youtube links. Found one of the Yes "America" versions that I like.

**Warning... Prog rock band, ten minutes long!** I drive about an hour to work and sometimes only get four tracks in on the way.

These guys would just not have been the same without Bill Bruford on the drums, though this is not exactly his showoff track, not posting that one here as it is not a cover.

This is one of the rare instances where the cover is much better than the original. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg8cD...eature=related
So much so that most people don't even know the original.
