this is by far the best selection of Beatles covers i have ever heard, and as a disc jockey i have heard more than my share. i am buying it as a Christmas gift for 3 of my friends, and got a copy for myself too. these songs are really well done and the whole album fits together nicely, even tho all the artists are different. enjoy.

New Age Beatles covers? Yes, I was fairly skeptical myself but curiosity overtook my skepticism and I ordered it anyhow.

I must say, this is a really good album. It assembles a fine group of New Age artists, including Michael Hedges, George Winston and Liz Story. And, the result is masterful.

A few of the songs are basically in their original format, just played as piano solos (Martha My Dear, Here There and Everywhere, and The Long and Winding Road.) If you are a fan of piano, which I am, you will enjoy them.

While many of the songs have the same arrangement as their originals, one (Here Comes The Sun) was very different. While its arrangement is interesting, it was a little too sedate for my taste.

My favorite track is 'Eleanor Rigby.' The guitar work on this song will just about bring you to tears--at least it does for me.

The only thing I didn't like about this album was the inclusion of vocals on 'I Will' and 'Blackbird.' It's not that the vocals were terrible or anything like that. It's a personal preference issue and my personal preference would have been for this to be a purely instrumental album.

Overall, though, I would say this is a wise purchase. If you are a fan of New Age music and you also happened to enjoy Beatles music, BUY THIS ALBUM because you will LOVE it. If you like the Beatles but aren't a huge fan of New Age, this album might convert you into a New Age fan.

This CD came well within suggested time, perfect condition and is just the most relaxing, beautiful music. It is great! Thanks.

When I was younger so much yonger than I'm today.
I've never needed any cover Beatles.
But these days has gone. I must need cover anyway.
So this CD is the best cover ever got. especially
"You won't see me" . If you are Beatlesmania
you have to get You won't see me.

There should be a law against anyone with a name like "SNUFFY" covering a Beatles song!Hell, there outta be a law against anyone even having the name "SNUFFY"! This entire album sounds worse that a poodle caught in a garbage disposal.I guess things could be worse though....could you imagine "LUCY IN THE SKY" redone by Pearl Jam.....has anyone seen my poodle?
