That leaves just two more songs needed to complete the White Album - "Dear Prudence" and "Revolution 9".

"Revolver" also needs just two songs to complete it - "Doctor Robert" and "I Want to Tell You".

I've always liked this, too! This song takes me to the childhood...=>piepod.

Oh man I like this alot. Thought about trying this one but there just isn't any time and now there is no reason to. As good as everything is in this, your vocal is really excellent. Great cover brother!
Rock on!

Knew before even clicking play that this would be great...

Love the dynamic tempo shifts, and the overall excellent production. And that voice! The cherry on top.  :)

It's a thing of joy and beauty, G.  Handled with aplomb, as usual.

Somebody must have Dear Prudence on the go, surely?

I've looked to see if each of these Beatles albums-of-covers has a jukebox, couldn't find anything?  It would be great if we could play them as albums. :)

This is one we should have done together Geir. I remember singing this together when we were kids (youths).
