I was hoping for original artist remakes but I really found nothing.  Guess it will be a very short thread.  :(

This is my favorite performance of Kashmir - by Page and Plant and backed up the the Egyptian Orchestra. 

Rarely to live performances blow away an original recording - but this one by far kills it.  And I do prefer this one over the original recording.

Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775
