Very nice! Enjoyed that. The Beatles had some of the best melodies to songs. I'm amazed that so many instrumentalist overlook them. Timeless classics. I remember Lloyd Green doing Here Comes The Sun and it was great.

sounds great.

I've always loved that one. it's one of the few covers the Beatles recorded and dates back to 1950 written by Meredith Willson. it was originally titled Til I Met You: https://youtu.be/p4yF0eyzqJI

I've been on a Beatles kick ever since the Get Back documentary came out, been working up a bunch of tunes mostly on C6. rehearsed Old Brown Shoe tonight with my band for an upcoming show. I'll try and record some video.

For fellow Beatles fans: Gary Carter doing "And I Love Her." His touch and tone are always amazing.

Nice playing Rene.
Written in 1950 as”Till I Met You”, it was retitled and ended up in The Music Man, sung by Shirley Jones. Paul had a penchant for old show tunes.
