I've been waiting for this some time now, hoping it wasn't the one I was working on ;) :D

And WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is really excellent !!! Fantastic performance. Great vox, great harmony vox. And you've naild those basses !! I love that you've got all the elements of this song and at the same time made it totally your own!

I had never hear of the wurlitzer rhythm machine either, but that really was a nice touch to this cover.

Already on PiPod !!!!!

Wow! This is a very underrated Beatles song IMO. It has a really psychedelic vibe on the verses that signposts the way to their more way-out, later stuff. I really like the low-key fuzz that drives this along, and the overall performance is top notch. All in all, a fantastic cover.

It feels a bit sad that we're almost done with the fest now. There's so many others I'd like to do, and I'm sure other people feel the same.

Still a couple of days left!

It's a great cover indeed, and the production is excellent too.

5 stars!

Oh, yeah, that was too slick, man! I love everything about this one - Everything well placed and supertight. The vocal harmonies are my fave, but I am into the whole tune big time.

Ah, a ProCo Rat. The first pedal I used with a bass. Unfortunately a friend of mine stole it from me a while back - And then he drilled a hole in the top and put an led light in it because he couldn't tell if it was on when he was gigging. Oh, the horror...


Anyway, killer tune, bro!

Love the way the bass tracks and percussion were done.... and fun to hear that old Whurlitzer box in action!  IMHO you could count this one as a BeatlesFest/PirateFest crossover because of the vocals in that lower register.  (Geir has a few that could be counted that way too...)  But all the notes are on pitch, including the fine harmonies.  Mighty fine job!

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.

Not a Beatles song that I am too familiar with, but really enjoyed this, its always a treat to get a post from you Cuth, they are always of the highest quality.

Both the performance and production on this is brilliant

This is oh so good Cuth. :o ;D

Excellent cover and production!! Was that Wurlitzer easy to figure out? It looks very straight forward.

Your vocals are perfect with the vibe...You outdid yourself with the different percussion..Well worth it!

Excellent job and straight to Piepod!!

Another George classeek to share!!!
