Mr. Nicholson,
I believe the Peter Green (my personal guitar hero) fab 4 tribute was
actually Here Comes the Sun King - sort of their take on the Mac's
Albatross.
FWIW - thanks to fellow auditeer and good pal Trip Aldredge, I've been
listening to the original Glyn Johns version of Get Back a lot lately. It's
a much maligned record but I actually like it much more that Pepper and
Abbey Road (of course I love those too). In particular, the version of Long
And Winding Road on there may just be my favorite McCartney tune - it's that
sublime.
