Here's a pretty interesting cover of Radiohead's "Paranoid Android" by Brad Mehldau and his combo that showcases the group's virtuosity as well as Mehldau's arranging abilities. Covers that cross over genre lines are usually pretty difficult to pull off, especially for such a complex tune, but these guys have the chops to do it justice and then some. If you liked this version, check out the original, or, if you just like the sound of Mehldau's group, he's got plenty of other great arrangements on this album.

Got any favorite genre-crossover covers?
