Wes Montgomery crossed over too, basically doing covers of Beatles songs.

Here's Kenny Rankin doing one:

Kenny Rankin Blackbird.

Paul McCarthy asked him to perform it at the Beatles' induction into the Rock&Roll Hall Of Fame.

I find that frustrating. Montgomery was amazing. The Beatles couldn’t hold his pick.

You know who didn’t cross over much is Metheny. I’ll see him again this year at the Saratoga Jazz Fest doing, I think he calls it Side eye.
It is typical virtuoso mesmerizing Metheny Jazz but when he does a song from Off Ramp people go nuts, in a good way.

He really likes to stick with jazz, I miss the metheny, mays, version of his career
