4.0 out of 5 stars Just buy it
Seriously - great bluegrass to great tunes. Even people who like the Beatles like it. That sucks. I love it.

2.0 out of 5 stars only "Hard Days Night" is worthy
Yes, only A Hard Days Night has life to it, and some notion of how to chart bluegrass, and some reflection of the joy behind the original. The songs are very light on mandolin and the fiddle sounds too classical. Same complaint with most of the "Pickin' on" series. My wife Sissy fed the rest of the CD to our critters. You know, some people want SWAG; we want SKAGGs -->...

1.0 out of 5 stars nice idea, poor execution, better ones out there, December 21, 2007

This review is from: Pickin' on the Beatles (Audio CD)
i love bluegrass and the Beatles, but this cd fails because of the plodding arrangements. check out Craig Duncan's Bluegrass Beatles from his website to hear this done right.

2.0 out of 5 stars Blueberry Fields Forever, May 15, 2004
By 
This review is from: Pickin' on the Beatles (Audio CD)
This album features instrumental bluegrass versions of Beatles songs played by session musicians. It's not very interesting. It's competently played (more or less), but without any feeling. I don't know anyone that this would appeal to.

1.0 out of 5 stars Move on people, nothing to see here...., May 25, 2011
This review is from: Pickin' on the Beatles (Audio CD)
OK, so I don't actually own the album, but I did click through the samples and right out of the gate I heard drums. First rule of Bluegrass, you don't have a drum kit (which I doubt it was even a kit, I bet it was electronic). Go buy Ancient Tones by Ricky Skaggs if you want Bluegrass or Abby Road if you want Beatles and pass on this.

5.0 out of 5 stars AMOUNG THE TOP 15 CD'S EVER!!!!!!, October 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Pickin' on the Beatles (Audio CD)
Rating this CD 58,951 is insane. In my oppinion the Beatles are the second best group ever. This is about the best example of have ever seen of their snazzy songs,like Tickit to Ride and Can't buy me love. This is a must for all true Beatles fans. Hey and we should all be Beatles fans.

If you love the Beatles and live in a swamp then you'll love listening to this CD with your sister/wife. 'Nuff said.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beattles Parody, maybe, but it isn't the Beattles, March 26, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Pickin' on the Beatles (Audio CD)
Look at the group carefully - this isn't a Beattles album. So yeah, I'd say it does deserve to be low on the sales rankings.
