So when I started this project, I had done another Beatles song, and The Beatles themselves blocked it before relenting. This was the 2nd I did, but the first to be widely heard. Beautiful song with three-part harmonies from way back in 1963. 

And if Apple, The Beatles, or UMG are watching, I MADE THIS TRACK MYSELF.

A cover version of one of the best songs in one of the best kids movies EVER! Written by the legendary Paul Williams (who wrote The Rainbow Connection for the Muppets, We've Only Just Begun and Rainy Days and Mondays for the Carpenters, featured on the track Touch, from Daft Punk's album Random Access Memories, and was also Little Enos on Smokey & The Bandit!).

After I posted If I Fell, a friend requested one of the three-part harmony tunes the Beatles did, and I chose This Boy. The friend had suspected I would do Yes It Is, so I decided to do that as well. I did a version really quickly, then decided I'd been lazy and decided to go more authentic. 
Sadly, The Beatles claimed that was their recording and had it blocked. And when I appealed it they had a human actually do a review, who STILL claimed it was The Beatles, and permanently blocked it.
So apparently I'm The Beatles.
My only question is; did my 60 years of royalties get lost in the post or something?🤣🤣

UPDATE: June 2022. I was advised by Youtube it was a "Content ID" issue, so I changed the visuals, uploaded it again, and got the same result: "blocked in all countries". Youtube honestly believes this is the Beatles version. I tried it twice, the second time on a video with a blank screen, and the title "YOUTUBE, NOW DO YOU BELIEVE ME?", and got exactly the same result.

Of all the bands to come from the "Britpop" era, Mansun were in my opinion (at least at the beginning of their career) the most adventurous, and the hardest to predict what they'd do next. Some people might point to Radiohead, but have a listen to Six and then come back to me. I got a loan of an advance tape copy from a guy who worked at Polydor, and was absolutely blown away by the album. It remains one I can listen to in its entirety, and never get bored.

So obviously, I had to have a go at a Mansun track at some point. Actually, I've done two, but this was the obvious first choice. When I was putting it together, I decided to go all cinematic with the beginning, so it made perfect sense to do the same with the video them.

Aaaaaand, ACTION!

Paperback Writer; arguably the start of the Beatles working by themselves, Main riff played by Paul along with Ringo, and then overdubs, Paul probably thinking it was easier to just teach Ringo and overdub, than teach the whole band; incidentally an approach Noel Gallagher always took in Oasis (he'd record the arrangement solo on acoustic, then overdub).

Paul has a broken tooth in the video for this, as he came off a scooter and broke that and burst his lip open; there's a photo of the damage on the inner sleeve of The White Album. 
The b-side of this was the track Rain (https://soundcloud.com/eddieg/the-beatles-rain), and John Lennon insisted it was the first instance of backwards recording on a commercial release.

And here's the b-side to Paperback Writer (https://soundcloud.com/eddieg/the-beatles-paperback-writer-cover-version-by-eddie-g), and is a track your casual listener might not know. But for me it and the a-side signify the start of The Beatles dictating what they were going to do from then on; they were catering to themselves, and anything was on the table as subject matter. So out went the "I love you" songs, and In came lyrics based on the Tibetan Book Of The Dead!

John Lennon always claimed Rain was the first commercially released record with backwards audio (the result of his accidentally threading a tape on the wrong way one night at home). I think he' probably wrong as there's a tiny, almosf inaudble little plip before the 2nd verse of Here, There & Everywhere, but John's story is better. 
And Ringo, since that day, has rated his drumming on Rain as the best he ever did. So thanks for forcing me to learn that part completely note for note, Ringo!😂

PS The little nod to Liam Gallagher ("when the sun sheeeeeeines") had to go in!😂

I sampled the samples that the samplers used to make the track they sampled for the main hook, and sampled the samplers as well. Let me explain...

So everybody knows my De La Soul story; if I hadn't been into them, when I first met my mate Brian I'd never have been introduced to Steely Dan (via him suggesting that being a Danny Wilson fan I would like Steely Dan, and then pointing out Eye Know was built on Peg), I'd never have become a musician, and my life would have been drastically different. But even before that, my granda would get me literally piles and piles of records that weren't shifting from a local record exchange, my ears were open to stuff that a 12-year old wouldn't ordinarily seek out, and Hall & Oates's album Private Eyes was in amongst one of the piles, so I always knew ICGFT very well. Hearing it flipped by De La Soul just affirmed their genius to me, and I've been a fan of them, Steely Dan AND Hall & Oates ever since then, over 32 years.

So I decided in tribute to both bands, to "reverse-engineer" Say No Go; I sought out the samples they used, then used them to make I Can't Go For That, played the drums, bass and keys myself, and then was lucky enough to get an astonishingly amazing sax solo courtesy of the Red Hot Chilli Pipers's very own multi-instrumentalist, Leon Thorne. And when someone's playing a solo that's literally blistering the paint off your doors, you let the lad run with it! Enjoy!

It was my big sis from another miss, Sam Dibley's from Dundee's rock covers band Two Wheels Good's birthday, and I thought "I could just wish her a happy birthday, or I could see how quickly I could TWG-ify the best birthday song ever; "Birthday" by the Beatles. 
Not counting stopping to have tea, and going downstairs to get juice and such, it took me five hours. Not bad! :D 
My daughter, Sheridan, literally phoned her "Yoko" parts in!

Do you remember when bands released singles and you'd buy all the formats because they usually had non-album tracks, or different versions of the A-side you wouldn't get anywhere else? 
Noel Gallagher did, and that's why a lot of Oasis b-sides can stand proudly alongside (and are sometimes even better than!) the a-sides or the album tracks. 

The Masterplan and Acquiesce would be other bands a-sides; Noel put them on the other side, because HE remembered.

I''d done this track, but I decided to do a b-side "alternative" version too as a throwback to those days, something for those people who like it a bit more laid back. And also, to emphasIse that it's not just a straight copy of the original; I've actually rewritten a large portion of the music.

One day I was sitting on my bed playing these three chords over and over that were familiar but I couldn't think how. Then over the top I sang "I met my maker, I made him cry", and I KNEW that wasn't the right words. But it fit, so I decided to rework it. The first person I played the idea to said it was "cheesy", but here's the thing; eh dae what eh want.

In 1997 Oasis brought out Be Here Now. I was in Kingsize myself at this time (we played T In The Park that year) and that was the point in time I started thinking they were maturing into something I would listen to; if you don't want your rock & roll albums to be packed full of bombastic, drug-fuelled, egocentric, self-indulgent musical insanity made by young guys you'd kill to swap jobs with, go listen to the Boo Radleys!! Even Oasis thought at the time, "we've booted the arse right out of it here" which was absolutely fine with me! Props to any band with the nuts to put 30 guitar tracks on one song!

Anyway, in anticipation of the 20th anniversary of the release, Noel Gallagher had the idea to go back and remix the whole album into something more sensible ("...for every millisecond Liam is not saying a word, there's a fucking guitar riff in there in a Wayne's World stylee"), but got bored after the first track and gave up, which he subtitled "NG's 2016 Rethink", and added to the bonus tracks on the re-release.

I always thought it a wee bit lazy of Noel to just take the chords of Wonderwall and recycle them into something else, so I've had a bash at trying to do something a bit different, and rewritten a lot of the music, but tried to maintain the vibe of the original. 
Noely G, what do you think of this, mate?....

FULL DISCLOSURE!
1. I am NOT Chris Cornell. (Attn Yotube algorithm; I'm really not, despite you thinking this is the official remastered version!). There's a reason Chris was known in the music business as "The Voice", and it wasn't because he was addicted to the TV show.
2. Soundgarden's version is 202bpm. When I recorded the drums I set a click track for half of that, and then decided to slow it down and get a bit heavier at 96bpm.....and when recording I slowed it down another 10bpm for the first half of the song because Matt Cameron is a BEAST!! But I played everything after the breakdown at the regular tempo, which (for a non-drummer) was surprisingly easy, and I realised Matt plays a lot of single kick drums as passing notes, which made things a bit easier too!

The world lost an amazing songwriter, and even more amazing vocalist when Chris Cornell decided to leave us. His work in Soundgarden, Audioslave and his solo endeavors was always of a very high standard. And he was someone who grew into themselves as he got older. So the news that he'd taken his own life suddenly was a complete shock to everyone who liked him and his music, and so sad.

He left some amazing compositions behind him, and this is probably my favourite. I'd been thinking about doing it for some time, but bottled it the first time round. And then when speaking to some friends a few weeks ago about this song I thought, "Why am I fearful of trying it? If it doesn't work I'll delete it anyway!". So I did the music, which turned out really good, and then I decided I would take the McCartney "Oh Darling" approach to the vocals; I would try it once a day, and if I wasn't happy I'd bin it and try again the next day. But the first time I tried it I thought "that's got a vibe about it, I'll probably lose that if I keep going and going and labouring at it" (plus given the voice volume level needed, I had about an hour to do it before everyone got back from shopping!), so I kept the first go and stuck with that. I'm no Chris Cornell, that guy had a voice I would kill for, but I gave it my best!

I wasn't even meant to be doing this...

Originally, this was for a project that didn't get off the ground. When my hard drive went at the start of the year (I use a Hackintosh, and work from a cloned drive of a safety copy) I had to reinstall, and I stumbled across the project file for this sitting on my storage drive, waiting for a lead vocal. I was proud of this when I'd finished the music, so in a sudden burst of bravery I decided to redo things that needed redoing, sing it and upload it. So I did.

And even after I did a video and uploaded it all, I still swayed for ages on sharing it or not. So it's been sat on YouTube, gathering dust!😂

When originally doing this, the version by the amazing Frankie Miller, one of the best singers to ever come out of Scotland, was the one in my mind, but I intentionally didn't listen to his before I played a note. Vocally, I'm absolutely nowhere near the level of Frankie, few are, but I hope I did him and Dougie's timeless composition justice.

This is a song written by Paul McCartney and featured on 1965's  Rubber Soul, widely accepted to be one of their best albums, and the point at which The Beatles began to change musically.

"I'm looking through you...and you're nowhere!"

If you overlook the 70s glam clothes and the dodgy hair, The Sweet were actually a brilliant rock band! Fox On The Run: tune! Blockbuster: tune! Teenage Rampage: tune!
This one was actually suggested by my son-in-law, and was a good shout. Tia Carrere did a great version on the first Wayne's World movie, but I decided to go a bit rockier than hers. Lars Ulrich might want some of his drum fills back tho!

The Sweet - Ballroom Blitz (Cover version by Eddie G)

Not much to say about this track, just my attempt at the first hit song by one of my favourite two bands ever, the other being The Beatles. There aren't enough superlatives to heap on Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, genius doesn't seem to be enough. 

As I said, this was their first success. From here, they would go on to virtually dictate how high quality recording should be, and along with Gary Katz and Roger "The Immortal" Nichols, make many innovations in the world of recorded audio.

This features Stewart Clark and Steve Gaughan on vocals and guitar respectively. Steve does the solo, and the first guitar you hear is also his, with me adding the passage after that and a few bits and pieces throughout.
