Best jazz covers of rock songs


Bad Plus got some ink for this, but I'm not a huge fan. Paul Desmond did Paul Simon (sort of rock) with (sort of) mixed results. I'm looking for interesting jazz takes on familiar tunes/riffs for entertaining purposes - my guests get familiarity and I get interesting music. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Robertd good call Miles Human Nature! He also did Time after Time.

I saw him do both in concert in the late 80s - I called at the last minute and got 7th row center after someone cancelled! Really good show.
