Cover Me, I'm Goin' In!
Volume Four of the series
From this set, I really like the Lowell George, True West, and Marianne Faithful versions. I even like the Jagger/Bowie duet, but probably more for the campy silliness of the video. The Pretenders cut, of course, is classic. I really hate the Devo - that's a long way from Uncontrollable Urge.

Howdy. I'm Tim Ware whose band is featured in this set, covering "Eleanor Rigby." If you'd like to link to the website for this music, where it can be listed to by all in some playlists there:

When we recorded that back in the early 1980s, my goal was to exactly replicate George Martin's string arrangement ... I got pretty close. I played the two mandolin parts.
I also have a Beatles Wiki which is pretty new:

Anyway, keep up the good work!
Tim
Tim - welcome! I think you're officially the first artist to show up on the blog to comment on your inclusion, other than some folks I know personally.
Having the scores available is a very cool idea, as well.
