Sent this to Geir and the brilliant viking that he is outdid himself. He sent me 5 vocvals & 2 baglama tracks. I did uke/vocal, bass, & minty/key drums. Also added a cuban tres solo. Thank you Geir for all the time, energy & talent you put into this.

Fabtastic!

Always have loved this song, being a big Buddy Holly fan. Your version has almost has a tropical, and even Hawaiian flavor to it, with the baglama, tres, and uke. Otherworldly, even!

Well done, gentlemen.

Love the Hawaiian twist on this Buddy / Beatles beauty. It really works. As does combining mega Songcrafter talents. Great to see you both collaborating my friends, and this is quite outstanding. Rum. I need rum now.

Brilliant, possibly my absolute favourite of the Hook For Sale saga. Your two voices mesh so well together and musically it's so bouncy and sunny. Lovely tropical flair to this oldie.

Wow, another amazing Beatles cover from the mind of Hook! The feel and instrumentation is really clever and this is a lovely listen. Really enjoyed this, two great Songcrafters collaborating in a really inventive way. Bravo!

Mind you, I thought baglama was a Greek pastry.........
