Both fests now are the ones I voted for so how could I not post a song on this one too ;D

I started this on the previous Beatles-fest, but just couldn't get the time or inspiration to finish it ..... well I couldn't find the recording from then so I started all over ... keeping it simple this time  .... 3xTelecaster rhythm + 1 solo. Gallileo organ and a bass .... had to triple the vocals to make it near bearable to listen to ::)

Sexy Sadie
w/m:Lennon/McCartney
guitars, bass, keyboard and vocals recorded by Geir on BR80

Excellent cover, Geir. Lots of energy! And brilliant vocals and guitar playing, as always.

This completes side 3 of The White Album. Only 4 more songs needed to complete the whole double album:

Yeah, I think you're right, Alfredo. Also, Yellow Submarine will probably never be finished because of all the orchestral stuff on side 2 - though side 1 might get done.

Wow, you must be the fifth, six, or seventh Beatle (depending on how you count them).

I loved that.

Whoa, this one's a knockout Geir! Great heavy feel between the guitars and the organ, and topped off with just stunning vocals.

Powerful stuff - perfectly delivered.

That sounds good, those guitars work right well. I think the tripled vox is a nice touch and gives a touch of old school vibe.
