Live from the'99 NY Beatlefest, here is the Beatles trib band, SHOUT! The lineup at that time consisted of Todd Rainey, Doug Couture, Greg Gersabeck and Mark Dawson
Every time I hear this song, I become more and more impressed by George Harrison's lead work. Watching young musicians being able to follow what I consider to be one of the most accomplished scores by a giant of modern music, impresses me to no end.
I'm not aware of how to tell Paul's lead from George's. I don't think it is known who invented the twin lead part, though I've tried all the usual sources.
... the Beatles tribute band "1964" would sing, "you say you've seen Stevie Wonder, and your bird is green." Definitely something Lennon would have sang live.
wow no wonder "john" real John that is was freaked out by people who wouldn't let him "them"move on l mean all the way from "Detroit" What!! we over this "side of the pond" England that is don't understand your obsession with the Beatles to the point of accents head movements C'MON how sad , play the music enjoy Move on didn't you get what John was saying about this!
@@steveclews3026: Quit pissing on other people´s parade, man. I'm not enamored with every aspect of these tribute bands either but they and their audiences have a good time, so quit being such a fukin´ Karen.
These didn't even make the finals! I was there . . . they weren't even allowed to take a curtain call for a final tally of applause . . . not quite a level playing field for the out-of-towners. I thought they did a nice job.
You can see their old videos with the girl playing George.Maybe best George by a girl ever been.If I not remember wrong she died of cancer young.I think her name was Rae Loeffler.
I like beatles cover bands that just play the songs and play them well. I don't care for the accent and silly crap said in the mic. Just play the songs. These guys could have used more rehearsal on the music (and VOCALS) rather than the schtick.
I don't know why people feel the need to make negative comments,my guess is that they have no talent themselves. From a "Beatle" player myself,Great job,sound,accents,performance,and body movements. Ray "Ringo" from "Toppermost"
Really good on the rhythm and lead, the drums and bass were a bit ropey. The Lennon member nailed it. The McCartney character seemed to be trying to pull off some kind of cockney chimney sweep routine and missed the bullseye. Nothing that a few rehearsals can't remedy though eh? All in all, a great tribute to the seminal artists that were the Beatles.
Oh man, I thought the guy playing Lennon was pushing it too much. Making too many faces. The guys playing George and Paul had the mannerisms down just right. Only my opinion of course.
Most Beatles tribute "Johns" strum on the downstroke. I think Lennon strummed on the up stroke on this song and many others. But, this John speaks exactly like Lennon did! it's a little chilling!
Um, this is not great. The lead guitar is lost in the mix and doesn’t sound right anyway, the singing's not bad but why have nearly 2 1/2 minutes of band set up before the song starts?
Interesting cover! Good performance. Only the bass guitar should have been stronger in the mix. It's weird why the Beatles themselves never played this song live ... (for example on the roof of an Apple??) it would be great.
The lead guitar is extremely hard to play so correctly in that speed - especially if you try to nail both voices at the same time. This was one of Georges' best tunes ever although I think he played both voices separately in the studio.
Fantastic! I have the "easier" music sheet for this and the chords are not easy. These guys have every mannerism of Paul, George, Ring and John down to perfection. Great job guys.
For an incredibly better done, crystal clear version, cover of this, head over to the Josh Turner Guitar channel. Only 3 guys, on a blanket in Central Park. Better guitar, vocals, everything.
@@lynntempleton9640 George wrote one of the best love songs ever written but he didnt write And your bird can sing as was suggested in a previous post.
@@lynntempleton9640 Every Beatles song was Lenon and McCartney except the few George and Ringo wrote Paul and John always despite who wrote what signed off ass Lennon and McCartney
The hoopla is greater than the performance -- Rule #1 is YOU DO NOT COVER THE BEATLES, but that aside, at least run thru the lyrics in order ..... no liberties allowed .... Grade ? C-
