Ella Fitzgerald covered Savoy Truffle, and it was awful: she also swung Can't Buy Me Love, and it was excellent.

My favourite Beatles cover(s): McElmore Avenue by Booker T & The MGs.

Best cover is by Aussie band The Zoot (Rick Springfield playin' some kickass guitar. Great rocked up version of Eleanor Rigby from 1970.
If I knew how to put up YouTube clips here I would!
Check it out and play it loud!

Nobody ever captured it.

The guitar, the voice, the pathos.

Paul's is the only version worth listening too.

He recorded "I'm Down" on the same day.

Ray Charles and Marvin Gaye both did excellent covers of it; so,too, Carla Thomas.

Yeah, but none of them had the smell of damp british houses, peeling wallpaper and kettles boiling in the corner.

That's what I "see" when I hear Paul's most beautiful vocal.

There's something very english about it all.

Hats off to the studio team for capturing it so well.
