This is part 2 of the Beatlesque What's The Connection and it seems to only be getting better and better. Knowing that I have even more in line, it is obvious that there are many bands that wanted to sound like the Beatles. These guys pulled it off better than most. I did not include in either of these volumes covers of Beatles songs. And You will notice, that other than ELO, I tried hard to not repeat bands. Several Cheap Trick songs could have been used (and maybe will be used in later volumes). I know you will have your favorite Beatlesque songs, so be sure to leave those in the comments and maybe they will join volume 3 or 4. And what do you think? Should the stuff that is supposed to be the Beatles but is partially Jeff Lynne be included in a future volume. I mean it is sort of the Beatles, but sort of not.

'I Don't Mind At All' by Bourgeoise Tagg.... Beatlesque!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat song! I actually have that song in line for two different connections coming up.
DeleteSub-Rosa Subway by Klaatu. I also think that's the tune when people thought (Beatles) were back together.
ReplyDeleteKlaatu has some pretty darn good albums. Their record company specifically left their names off the cover to imply that they were the Beatles. And many believed it when it came out.
DeleteHi Pol...

I encourage further excursions of Beatlesque.
