Happiness Is a Warm Gun* - Marc Ribot
*Beatles cover, though it is way way out there on the experimental side and only resembles the original in the most minimal (yet crucial) ways. Marc's few Beatles' covers (he also did "While My Guitar Gently Weeps") are a perfect example of what I am looking for in a cover, a completely different approach to the song.

NP: Paranoid Android - Brad Mehldau (solo live version)
Brad is an amazing jazz pianist. He released a version with his trio on his Largo album which is amazing, but the version he plays live and solo is both a lesson in piano phrasing, and an illustration of how much there really is to that song. Brad's covered other RH as well (Exit Music, Knives Out, Everything In It's Right Place, and at least one other that is slipping my mind right now).
nope not ahead of my time. matter of fact the grunge scene was from my prime, early-teens to about 20.
although admittedly R'head isn't really grunge.
nope, pretty far from it.
i'd have a hard time attaching a genre to them on anything other than a song by song basis. i'd say it all falls under the umbrella of rock, but then there's a song like "You and Whose Army" which is much closer to jazz than anything in the rock family. one of the reasons i love that band. it doesn't get stale.
