One of my Beatles' favourites on the Rubber  Soul album I always wanted to record myself. In 8 takes (6 used) recorded on my Boss Micro BR. Three vocals, three guitars, the bass and the drummachine. The documentary movie Nowhere Boy about John Lennons' early musical years brought me to trying my bit. I hope you enjoy it.

All time of CSNY, I always wanted to record once. Since I don't have and can't play pedalsteel, I used a Fender Telecaster for the soloparts.

Number I came to know through the schoolband Scar in 1978. This track was poorly recorded in the basement of my parents appartment in 1984. I re-recorded my vocals in 1995 on a Tascam multitrackcassetterecorder.
