Haven't had any new responses in this topic for a few days, and I gather that Tim is pretty tied up. So I guess it's time to wrap it up. Thanks to everyone for a very enjoyable conversation! Tim, thanks for your time and insights, and for giving us this exhaustive new biography of one of the most influential people--in any field--in our lifetime. [Read entire topic]

>a line McCartney considered a mere placeholder

But overall we're pretty glad he didn't call Yesterday "Scrambled Eggs." [Read entire topic]

The question intrigued me, and I did some searching. Unlike the Beatle book, there's no one-stop shop, but there's a lot of note-for-note TAB out there. For example:

Here's a stack of them:

While I don't know if you'll learn EVERYTHING about modern rock gtr from Beatle catalog, you certainly could learn a TON. I think you'd have to rope Hendrix in there to learn it all, but I seriously doubt anybody's done that... where are the Hendrix transcriptions? I'm SERIOUS! [Read entire topic]

Besides being a successful producer and a fine musician, he produced the Goon Shows which appealed hugely to their sense of humor. So he was not only good and knowledgeable, but his cool credentials were impeccable. [Read entire topic]

There's one in "She Loves You" that also kicks major ass. [Read entire topic]
