Excellent work! Welcome back other Reg!
@ Beth: Well, since you had to ask! Yes, the percussion here is very nice: I would classify this not as Bossanova (a Brazilian pattern built upon Samba type rhythms). To my ear, this is afro-cuban and would be in the "Son" (aka Salsa) family, in which the "2" is the primary accent. There are a variety of patterns in this family, differing primarily in tempo:
Bolero; Guajira<104; Danzón = 104-132; Cha-Cha = 108-126; Son = 122-224; Son Montuno = 184-216; Mambo = 224-264.
i think the title says it all.....the easy ones from the Beatles music book........More Regged up beatles but no Elvis he has gone off in a sulk he never did like them and he thinks were doing too much of them.......
Reg had a bit of tiff with the Mrs so he stormed down the cellar to release his anguish with Elvis and turned it into this little beauty .....now he feels a lot better and is making Mrs Reg a nice cup of tea to say sorry....because lets face it…
I had a blast doing this one with Geas, hope you like it as much as we did doing it...............

Well Reg has found himself in some difficult times in the past and has needed his time in the Asylum just to let time catch up with his mind.........this track is about such a time...when his affair with lovemebaby turned sour.....

I picked up on one of Norm's wonderful grooves.
I added some bass, guitar, horns, and a basic drum track. Kicker and snare with a few cymbols. I didn't want to walk on Norm's fine, fine, percussion.
Thanks Norm for allowing me the opportunity…

OH! Smooth! Wonderful rhythm, is that Bossanova? This is lovely Reg. Dear Reg, this could be the prelude to a few more interesting encounters?
very unusual - reggae Beatles sort of?
Thats it. This year, im making it a point to fly to England and find Reg's cellar. Not only to meet the King, but also to play the £16 guitar
Good good stuff :)
Yes, and Elvis has gone off in a huff!
Go Go Go!
Well, that was different. Clever cool...
I never liked this song! But this, this I really like. It's really cool, love it Reg.
C'mon Baby, let the good times roll! Yeah!
Poor Reg! Feel better soon! Well you certainly captured the atmosphere!
Whoah, rock it boys!! Great vox Reg. Just listen to the guitar, Wow! Ha! Sooo cool!
Nice one really cool.
It's stuck in my head. I can listen all day. Again!
Oh Yea! Crank it up!!
brilliant melancholic track
This is fun!

Awesome!!
finally I get to hear this - oh this is so weird - Elvis does Beatles! I like the arrangement.
