BeatlesFest : "Back In The U.S.S.R."

[Bluesberry]

I decided to try to do a heavy blues on this one, it is really a blues song deep down, so I tried anyway, got a bit loose on red ales and gave 'er.  Recorded with my MicroBR, 5 tracks plus MBR drums, 5 hours on a Thursday night.  Fun song for sure.

What an awesome take on one of my favourite Beatles tunes.

This is such a great interpretation.

I love it.

Fantastic version Dave !!! WOW That guitar is just fab !!

Love the way you've re-invented this classic !!

This has a BIG stamp of BluesBerry awsomness on it.

You did it. Man, you did it. Bluesy Bluesberry goodness all the way. What an inspired variation on the original. It really works well. And as always, you've whipped all the parts into shape with real skill and craft.

Wicked!! Very good version, love the heavy blues vibe, works a treat. Arrangement, guitar and vocals are brilliant, love the 'back in the u s s r' bangin' with the snare. Right on!!

I never really thought of this as a blues tune, but this version really works!

Kudos to you Dave for your unique interpretation - excellent performance and recording!

Dave!  I love how you put the freakin' blues to this! "Aw
 come on!" Loved that.

You rule bro!

Tone for days!

Great choice, treatment, and playing, but that opening ringing tone just slays me.
