Yeah, Slither 2, I believe.  Which is really hard to find.

I think the Slither CD2 was only released in the UK. I got mine from amazon.co.uk. The version on the single is 7:38 min. The version I've seen for dowload is usely a lot shorter.

I ordered it a week before it got released, and it took nearly 2 weeks to arrive, there appeared to be some sort of stock problem. Undecided

"Money" is my favorite of all the VR covers that I have heard but there is still a couple I have yet to hear.  I actually like it better than the original. That song was always one of the most boring Floyd songs for me but VR gave it a bit of rawness that wasn't there before and Slash jams out forever at the end...

Sorry guys... Money is the only thing VR has released that I really don't like, so far.  The Pink Floyd original is perfect.  It just seems like a pointless cover that misses the point of the original, to me.   Just making a song more "rocking" doesn't automatically make it better, imo.

I wasn't really much of a fan of the Pink Floyd original, but hearing VR do it made me check out the original  again and appreciate it a little more.
I do prefer VR's version though, and Slash and Matt just go for broke at the end of the song, I love it!

Speaking of cover songs, I also really like the live version of Rock Superstar that "the Project", as they were called at the time (VR minus Scott) played with Cypress Hill on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show.
