After hearing DT's rendition of "Gangland" I can say with confidence that they have the mojo to rework any cover into some thing cool.  One thing we haven't heard them do much is classic blues.  What would DT's take be on Kansas City, The Thrill is Gone, or Stormy Monday sound like?

Let me amend my last post

KISS - Lick it up!      I just popped on my iPod and I immediately thought "this would be a terrible DT cover"

I've been wondering - was MP the driving force behind the DT full album covers  (i.e. Master of Puppets, Number of the Beast, Live in Japan, Dark Side of the Moon)?

I notice they haven't done one of those in quite some time.     I have enjoyed each of them

I think so, because his side projects have usually done a lot of covers also.

2112. We'd have super high expectations and it probably wouldn't sit right. Maybe 20 years ago but not now.

Not that I dislike the original but imagine DT trying to pull it off  :mehlin

Since I thought this thread was about album covers when I first saw the title, I'm going to nominate A Dramatic Turn of Events & Falling Into Infinity.
