Strawberry Fields or Happiness is a Warm Gun

 

After the nailing of Broken Arrow, it is apparent that this band has the ability, touch, taste and chops to handle songs of any complexity that they choose.

 

That being said, I would love to hear this band tackle the Medley from Abbey Road. Strike that. The entire second Side of Abbey Road (for you youngsters who don't remember music before cds that would be the stretch from Here Comes the Sun through The End.

"Cold Turkey."

 

I'm Only Sleeping

 

There are live version of both of these circulating. JP, their former road guy, sings Cold Turkey, and the cover of I'm Only Sleeping is a Jeff solo venture, but both are fantastic.

Wow ... I need to delve into wilcobase!

 

I still like my idea of "I Want You (She's So Heavy) done AGIB-fashion.

 

I may be in the minority, but "Across the Universe" really soured me to Beatles covers.

No, you're definitely not. It takes a special kind of musician to not fuck it up. That being said, I enjoy both "Helter Skelter" and "Come Together" as performed by Aerosmith, and "I'm Down" isn't all that bad either.
