Good morning!
Tuesday, Sep 23, 2014 - Posted by Rich Miller * I’ve decided that what this campaign season needs is more music. Lots more music. So, that’s what we’re gonna have. Let’s start today with Jackie Greene covering The Beatles. Turn it all the way up and blow that sleep outta your eyes… Yes, she does

Good morning!
Waking up before the Sun, this was like NASA waking the Astronauts.
Thanks.

Great stuff.
I need to be exposed to more music, more artists.
A big failing I have. Good stuff like this reminds me of that.

By contrast, here’s my most recent encounter with a Beatles tune performed live. http://youtu.be/LoecOpD8WJs?t=1m51s
The Beatles: They contain multitudes.

wow, music wake up was the thought at our house too. we have Zepplin on, though that is kind of a late night band.

Another good cover IMHO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9eVH1t8ki8

I think I mentioned the other day, Rauner’s “100 Years” spot borrows or knocks off the Beatles “A Day in the Life” in the closing crescendo and final chord.
Don’t know why, but it does.

Thanks, Rich. Great stuff. We can never go wrong with The Beatles.
Illinois will always be a part of Beatles history, with George going to southern Illinois and jamming at a local gig before the band made it, and the early Chicago record releases (if I remember correctly).
- wordslinger - Tuesday, Sep 23, 14 @ 9:36 am:
Grandson, you’re history is a little off. The Stones recorded at Chess Studios on South Michigan, not the Beatles.

Skip the coffee and start your day with Steve’n'Seagulls’ bluegrass version of AC/DC’s Thunderstruck. It’ll give you an all day ear worm. Great vid.

wordslinger, I read about how The Beatles tried to break into the American market before Beatlemania but failed. They may have released a single or two and had radio stations play the records, but they went nowhere, at first.
I thought Chicago had something to do with that, but I guess not. I believe Lennon commented about the early releases, and how the songs were like already a year old before Beatlemania happened in America.
