iPhone Album: Beatles Cover

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Yet another song created entirely on my iPhone using the FourTrack app. This time I’ve covered a Beatles song. I’ve always loved this song cause it was John Lennon’s confessed attempt at copying Bob Dylan.

There is something paradoxical about a guy the stature of John Lennon sitting playing the guitar copying another artist. Some say resulting in a song better then any of Bob Dylan’s.

There are, of course, other Beatles songs that are attempts at plagiarism (Back in the USSR comes to mind) but this is my favourite.
