I kind of lost track as to who is doing what piece so for now I'm submitting Golden Slumbers which was the first song contributed when I joined the forum. More will follow. Probably Maxwell's Silver Hammer and one other. Everything so far has been terrific. This was a great idea.

Manndrew - very nice. You got the chords just right.

-Serge88-

1. "Yesterday" - Beautiful ! Paul would be proud.

2. "And I Love Her" - And I loved it; great job.

3. "The Long and Winding Road" - What a beautiful version. Very, very, nicely done. I wish I could play it like this.

Thanks for the McCartney Hat-Trick Trio, Serge88 !

Manndrew

"Golden Slumbers" - Thanks for adding this great interpretation. You started playing it straight, but then you added some great personal touches.
Great!

Looking forward to your further additions on this thread!

somewhat belated contribution http://www.box.net/shared/na679j6fy2

mikenz - very cool! It has a real Billy Preston feel to it. I am impressed by folks who can use the advanced features of a digital piano.

thanks Bill. Billy Preston a wonderful keyboard player gone too soon. This may be of interest to the Beatles fans Magical Memory Tour

mikenz -

Yea... b528nf7 nailed it... Billy Preston !

Cool Groove... ... Awesome.
Thanks for the entry, and its not too late to add more.

Can we twist your arm to do "Get Back?"

I loved everyone's renditions! Thanks for starting this thread on my all-time favorite group.

Here's my version of "Lady Madonna": http://www.box.net/shared/n8uyjeqa41

Elssa, this is a wonderful rendition. I have heard 'Lady Madonna' many times played on the piano but this version is nice in that it carries the melody for a soloist. Superb! Are you working from a printed arrangement?

Thanks, Ragtime! I redid it and tried to cut down the strings this time.

I actually got most of the bass line from one of the arrangements at www.musicnotes.com I then added in my own right hand and a few other things.

Mahlzeit, this is a beautiful rendition of a fantastic Lennon track from a brilliant album. Is this from printed music, what key is it in and how long did it take to figure it all out?

Elssa:

I didn't include your first "Lady Madonna" on my first post because I could not open it, but I included your second one. Great work on one of my favorites! Send some more!

as requested Get Back ( or something like it )
Cheers http://www.box.net/shared/vetqnxs66d

Thanks, Ragtime!

I didn't really know this was written by John Lennon. I first heard this song on a recording by Jackson Browne. I played it by ear, probably in the key of C because that is what I usually play in -- hmm, actually it's probably in A minor -- and it didn't take very long to figure out. Although it probably helps if you know how to play by ear or have a program such as Transcribe! to help you transcribe it.

mikenz:

Thanks for taking the request !

Cool version.... tricked us into a blues...

Great !

Hey, I Love this thread!!

Thought I may aswell chip in with a little something this afternoon


Can\'t Buy Me Love - by the Sea! [click]


Lee

Hey Lee:

Thanks for the Piano Magical Mystery Version! Nice one!

(Please make sure you check out my first post. Your song "Can't Buy Me Love - by the Sea!" is the only song ever with four of these things **** meaning its the only
song composed by Lennon/McCartney/Seaside Lee!)
