5.0 out of 5 stars Liked it So Much I Bought Copies to Give to Friends, February 11, 2003

Milko McGillicuddy "Corvus Corbeau" (Calgary, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Come Together: America Salutes Beatles (Audio CD)

The first time I saw this in a music store I thought "Country artists playing the Beatles--give me a break!" But after one listen I was hooked, and I've played this hundreds of times since, only slowing down 'cause I was driving my family nuts playing it over and over. Country artists pull the emotion out of the tunes the way George Martin's productions didn't/couldn't do in the original recordings, and believe me, I'm a major fan of the originals. But the songs took my heart away, especially I'll Follow The Sun by David Ball, Something by Tanya Tucker, If I Fell by Sammy Kershaw, In My Life by Susan Ashton And Gary Chapman, and All My Loving by Suzy Bogguss And Chet Atkins are took my heart away. And the rockers on this disk are fun and irresistible, especially One After 909, Come Together, Oh Darling, and Get Back. I liked this so much I bought several for my friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely wonderful tribute album, February 8, 2003

This review is from: Come Together: America Salutes Beatles (Audio CD)

This was the first (of many) Beatles tributes I have purchased over the years, and it is by far the best. With a fairly eclectic mix of country and pop artists, there should be something on this album to please any ear. My highlight remains Phil Keaggy and PFR's rendition of "We Can Work It Out." The harmonies are perfect. At the oppisite end of the spectrum is the equally impressive "One After 909" by Willie Nelson. Presented at a great shuffle pace. You will not be disappointed if you pick this up. A truly wonderful collection of Beatles classics.

5.0 out of 5 stars To My Surprise, November 12, 2006

This review is from: Come Together: America Salutes Beatles (Audio CD)

I bought this cd out of curiosity, and mainly because Randy Travis and Chet Atkins is on this album. To my surprise, I was blown away...this has today's best C&W musicians, doing their own personal interpretations of the old Beatles' standards. I've never heard of Suzy Bogguss or Susan Ashton before, but now I do. Their voices are incredible! I listen to just about every music genre, and this cd is one of my Country & Western essentials.
