Tom in RI Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Thinking of things such as Tony Rice covering 4 on 6, The Waybacks covering Scrapple From the Apple, or David Grismsn playing Naima. Can you suggest other examples I’m not familiar with? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Tom, The Bad Livers (with Danny Barnes) did a cover of Sun Ra's "Interplanetary Music." Bill Monroe's "Heavy Traffic Ahead" has always sounded to me like a bluegrass cover of a jazz tune -- even though it's a Monroe original. ... Not exactly what you were asking for, but it's sorta in the same neighborhood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabshakeh Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Tony Rice on Backwaters did On Green Dolphin Street and also My Favourite Things. I'm sure there is tons of Bela Fleck stuff. Nice idea for a thread by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom in RI Posted May 30 Author Report Share Posted May 30 Thanks Lon, I’ve had Hillbilly Jazz since it was cutout in the late 1970’s. Good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Beat Steve Posted May 30 Report Share Posted May 30 11 hours ago, jazzbo said: https://www.discogs.com/master/745272-Vassar-Clements-Hillbilly-Jazz That's the one that came to my mind first when I saw the title of this thread. Classic stuff. A friend had it in our high schol days in the latter 70s, and a couple of years later I got my own copy of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
