If you haven't already, give the new CD by Pink Turtle - "Pop in Swing" a listen. It's a very interesting jazz interpretation of pop music like Hotel California and Smoke on the Water.
“Pink Turtle uses the ingenuity of jazz and effectiveness of swing to interpret the greatest pop hits from the last thirty years. The verve of these well-known songs is heightened by the seven musicians who bring out the best of the tunes with the addition of jazz harmonies. A refreshingly fun album, far from stereotyped intellectual jazz, which takes us back to the essence of swing - true entertainment.” Benjamin Goldenstein & Patrick Frémeaux
