The Songs of The Beatles Covered by the Musicians of the World
We Live in The Golden Age Of Beatles Music
The music of the world's greatest rock band did not end in 1970
with their last studio album, or in 1996 with "The Antology" series.
In reality there is new material coming out on an almost daily
basis, as legacy musicians pick up on the root influences of their
own generation; as jazz and swing musicians shift their focus froms
the tandards of the 30s and 40s to the popular favorites of their
own time; and as twenty-first century pop artists unearth The
Beatles as though it is their own private siscovery.
The wealth of cover versions is so inmense that they cannot
be taken on in one volume. Here are the songs from the first
Beatles album and a look at the artists who have made them their
own. Welcome to the unveiling of the great, the unknown and the
unexpectedly inspired musicians creating today's new and totally
gear Beatle music.
SCOTT JOHNSON has been enjoying, playing and studying the music of The BEATLES since the evening he and his siblings thrilled to their first Ed Sullivan appearance in glorius black an white. He is currently working on the second volume of the GEAR series.
