Check this out, it's Niagara Falls Hall of Fame guitarist Jamie Holka doing a great acoustic take on "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band."

 

 

 

Holka ia terrific. 

 

Was he inducted this year? I ask because my sister was in town for her 50th high school reunion and went to this year's introduction. 

 

My brother was an original member of the HOF (inducted posthumously). A high school friend of mine, Bob Hillman, was inducted this year.

Yes, he was. So was his longtime collaborator Bruce Wojick.

on a highly expert site, this is listed as one of the few pop songs with descending key changes... on the chorus... i don't understand what this means though, only got my grade 8 in piano... and the vocal melody ascends at the same time.... i can discern it for the piano on the Kinks Sunny Afternoon, a bit more obvious

But John gets edged out by the more arch nasal tones of George in harmonies....  one of the better examples

 

 

It's still peak John before being addled by Dylan/drugs/Yoko (listed in order of ascending debilitation)

it was the 60s, lots of strange stuff went down, especially among normal people like one's great-aunt and uncle  :D

 

 

as the years go by it it all gets better, random snippets of their songs out there are helpful\

 

did the best John voice peak with Money?

the best harmony mix of MacLen on record, even in the same channel, why didn't they do this again, or at least this clearly????  :(

 

i chime in that this is in 6/8 to accommodate the  2 "middle" eights

Nah. Revolver is peak beatles, everything after is just kinda bleh to me.

 

After that you have the appearance of the likes of Black Sabbath, and the ascendancy of the Who.
