Working on this song these days and realized it is one of the most covered Beatles songs.
Seriously, love this tune, now that I know the lyrics and chord progression, it's just brilliant.
What is your favorite cover?
I personally love the Toto version, especially the Live In Amsterdam.

No, I mean by a full band.
The Jeff Healey Band version (featuring some George Harrison -RIP- dude) is pretty sweet.

| | | | Woah you read my mind about the ukelele version. My favorite version is with George Harrisson, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Phil Collins, Elton John and I think One or two other people.

It's kind of a tear jerker. That song specifically has Eric Clapton, Jeff Lynne, Paul McCartney, Ringo, Dhani Harrison, Albert Lee, Billy Preston, etc... An amazing line up of musicians.

My favorite version was with a power trio I was in a few years ago, sadly the guitar player has passed away before we ever got it recorded and so many other tunes. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
