We Can Work It Out: Covers Of The Beatles 1962-1966 / Various
Three CD compilation that focuses on the massive influence The Beatles had on a multitude of artists in disparate genres throughout numerous countries, right from the very start. Featuring Mary Wells, Count Basie, Cilla Black, Joe Cocker, PJ Proby, Mae West, Jose Feliciano, Jimmy James, Liza Minelli and many more. In this collection, we find artists from France, Holland, America, Italy, New Zealand, Hungary, and Puerto Rico, all proving that The Beatles songs were so great that it didn't matter what language they were sung in. Sunshine pop sits next to raw soul while bluegrass nudges up against jazz. Serious British folkies mix with campy Hollywood legends as Hungarian gypsy guitar makes way for proto psychedelia - nothing was safe from the all-encompassing influence of The Fab Four! This wild variety of musical styles not only illustrates the strength of the compositional skills of Lennon, McCartney and Harrison but also provides an engaging and eclectic listening experience that appeals to fans of The Beatles in particular as well as those who like popular music in general.
