I've listened to a few renditions of this song (Bill Evan's is pretty nice - 
Beautiful Love), and this is my favorite so far. What's strange however is that all of these covers are piano or guitar trios, sometimes with both (like Anita O Day's version - 
Beautiful Love).

I wanted to hear a saxophone or trumpet solo over these changes but couldn't find anything.

Taking a cursory look at Youtube (searching "Beautiful Love Saxophone Solo"), all of the results seem to be instructional (e.g. "easy beginner beautiful love saxophone solo"). Maybe these changes are too easy or boring for a serious sax player?

Seems like an innocent enough solo guitar joe-pass-ish cover of 
Beautiful Love, until all hell breaks loose 50 seconds in. Not sure how I feel about it! It's definitely unexpected, going from jazz to weird post punk, but I'm not sure it really works, or says anything.
