Seems like the Fab Four are all over the place, because of the new songs
and the recent "Anthology" TV specials. Just thought I'd throw this
thought in - Jazz guitarist Stanley Jordan recently said, "Beatles songs
are the standards of our generation..." so, transposing the way older
songs were covered by jazz artists, how about this question:
Name any Beatles song that could be re-done in an Acid-Jazz style, and
name the artist who you'd like to see cover it - For example, "I Am The
Walrus" covered by United Future Organization, let's say. Let your
imagination run wild here - all in the name of fun.
