Thanks Yesspaz!!! As for the other suggestions: "No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed" - composer R. Havens & "Astral Traveller" - J. Anderson.
The thing is... that I don't think "classically derived" will work, for in that case... all ELP or Trace discography will easely fit in! I want to keep the compilation in the "cover" area, and not in an "influences" one... Thanks again!!!

Ok. The Miles is definitely a "cover" if you can call it that. The Yes one's I listed are sort of half-covers. "Astral Traveller"'s middle section is a flat out (I think) Stravinsky piece, though I don't know which one. I'll try to think of others.

I know that Metallica has done Holst's "Mars, the Bringer of War." (and it features prominenly in "The Devil's Triangle" by KC.
