    Maurice; thanks for the Like; I'd been stale at 666 and it was beginning to creep me out.

    Rainbow’s cover of the Yardbirds Still I’m Sad is outrageously different from an already outrageous original

    One of my very favorite covers is this Rosa Passos version of Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Aguas De Marco":

    Enjoyable but really just a straight cover, hardly outrageously inventive.

    Yes John it has many standout covers from wonderful blues (and related) artists including; Sway, Midnight Rambler, Ventilator Blues, Wild Horses and Satisfaction.
    N.b. The alternate cover art of Mick n Keef on stage circa 73' is far better IMO.

    Red House Painters’ version of “Silly Love Songs” is pretty radical, in a good way.

    I don't know about "outrageously", but Bram Tchaikovsky's version of "I'm a Believer" is a pretty creative arrangement:
