Great job, Geir. I had been thinking of doing this one myself but I didn't find the time.

Oh, I know this one - one of the few Beatles 'instrumentals' that they put on an album. Nicely done, Geir - it's got a bit of an 'electric' Dylan sound to it - maybe from the Hammond?

Nicely done, sir.

This sounds fantastic. Your ability to jump from one type of production to a totally different one so quick is amazing.
You`re a talented man you are!!

You're not wrong there, Gnast'

Nice little vignette of a Beatles song.  It's the 7th's that give it away.
