Woah...

Go see how many dudes on YouTube have tried covering this guy's compositions! Some are better than others, but none I saw touches the original. Thanks for sharing. I might buy this guy's CD now!

I was looking for music online a few months ago and found a guy that is "sort of" in league with Andy. He was playing Penny Lane. He plays the chords and walks the bassline at the same time. I recorded it off the computer onto a digital 4 track and overdubbed 3 vocals. I put 3 part harmony on the chorus. The original has 2.
