V.A. Lost Songs of Lennon & McCartney


As a coda to MRML's series on Graham Parker from earlier this month, here's a collaboration GP did with The B-52's Kate Pierson, Cheap Trick's Robin Zander and Buffalo Tom's Bill Janovitz on versions of Lennon and McCartney songs the Beatles never recorded. While far from perfect, it's fascinating for fans of either the Beatles or the artists involved.

  2. Well usually I ruin, instead of save people's days but this is a pleasant turn of events regardless.

    Yup this one is super-obscure (of course it's had almost 500 d/l's!)

    Yeah this is Bill's 2nd MRML appearance as cover artist (the other being his "Stright to Hell").
