    The Melvins combining In The Flesh? by Pink Floyd with the Blondie tune of the same name is pretty clever, methinks:

    Not "outrageous," perhaps ~ but never fails to stun me how utterly (and beautifully) Buck & Don Rich translate this song into Bakersfield Buckaroo-ese, their glorious harmony blend taking it to heights unforeseen....

    You are a lifetime Beatles diehard so nice you support your man, I prefer Joe's drama, emotion and soul vocalisations put into this truly stunning transformation.

    yes, you nailed it...but to be fair I do not prefer any Beatles covers over the original...not out of blind dedication...I just love their songs.

    I assume there were barely any covers from mid 65' through 69' no?

    Such an awesome version - just shows when a song is good, its good - no matter how its played. Love the gravelly voice as well. Thank you for sharing!

    Granted, the original was very sparse, but this is great.
    RT's guitar makes this work, especially when the breakdown happens and he carries the voices.
