Don't know if this could be construed as a "cover", but fuck it:

2 songs I'm not especially keen on, merged into one I DO like. Beatallica are awesome.

The Thumbs - (Please Please Please) Let Me Get What I Want:

they also cover Iron Man, Smells like Teen Spirit, Stravinsky's Apollo, as well as tons of stunning originals. FANTABULOUS BAND!!!
Bad Plus rocks my socks! Although I wasn't really into the bits I heard of the last album, with the vocalist. Maybe I need to give it another chance...
I'm more like a mids-ist than a bassist.
