This one is really in the same spirit as the Gentle Giant one, but really different at the same time. Tiarra were a metal band from Romania who'd broken up before I ever discovered them. They had a violin and cello, who believe it or not were an integral part of their sound, including in this song.

Buffalo Springfield - seems like they existed in a galaxy and time long, long, ago. What an influential group - among others there were future mega talents like Steven Stills, Neil Young, and Richie Furay.
From their 1968 album Last Time Around, this is Richie Furay singing a Neil Young composition, On the Way Home:

Okay, Gram Parsons was briefly a member of The Byrds, he was in The Flying Burrito Brothers, he had several solo albums (although Emmylou Harris was singing backup with him on almost every one of those songs). How many have heard of the International Submarine Band? That's another group he was in. Wherever he went, he took his signature sound with him.
Tough to cover an Otis Redding rouser.
