I know they aren't a cover group, but they did the best two covers ever!

Apologies now, but some of theirs are … erm … interesting:

That is so much better than the original. They look like they're having fun! Amazing sax and trumpet.

Not really cover groups - I'm not quite sure what's called for here, sincere imitations or sincere interpretations.
Anyway, have two versions of Summertime, first Janis Joplin:

To conclude my contribution for tonight, here's one of my favourite street bands, Camachofones, with their interpretation of Herbie Hancock's Watermelon Man. Really friendly bunch - let me play on their trademark tubaphone during a break!

I can't let a covers thread pass without posting this gem again.

Not so much a band as one guy in his home studio.
