This isn't fair, but the Beatles together and solo did have country influences in their music. Some is in this pick. Personally, I think the Stones did country better (see Country Stones), but the Beatles did have some good songs that really sound country. Some just have that hint of country flavor. That doesn't make the songs bad. No, in fact, some of them are excellent Beatles songs with a Beatles sound. Ringo was a big country fan. He had a whole country album as a solo artist and several of the Beatles tracks with a real country flair are featuring Ringo. But all of them had some country influences. I know I could have picked a bunch of others. Let me know if I missed a really obvious one (especially solo stuff), but here's my pick of countrified Beatles. BTW, I love this cover! My first attempt at AI.
