Anyone who has dug through record bins in charity shops would have seen endless numbers of weird cover records of popular songs. Like "The xxx orchestra performs Burt Bacharach" with Burt Bacharach in huge writing and the actual orchestra listed low on the cover. Sometimes with a fetching picture of some young lady on them, sometimes not. Sometimes it's just instrumentals, occasionally an un-named vocalist on there. This is not a new phenomenon, it goes back at least 60 years.
