The Analogues, a Dutch group, featuring their recent live performance in Holland of the Beatles White Album. IMO they just knock it out of the park! :dude:
From Wikipedia:
"The Analogues are a Dutch tribute act to The Beatles. Founded in 2014, the Analogues' ambition has been to perform The Beatles' music from their later studio years live, using analogue and period-correct instrumentation. From the start the Analogues have distinguished themselves by performing songs and whole albums live, which The Beatles themselves never played live; supported by brass and strings. Appearance-wise the band makes no effort to look like The Beatles, but they are called masters at recreating and reproducing the original sound.
In June 2017 Dutch national TV-broadcaster NTR aired a one-hour documentary about the painstaking process of analysing The Beatles' complex compositions and experimental use of studio equipment, as well as acquisition of the proper analogue instruments, in preparation of live rendition of the Sgt. Pepper's album. Before an album can be played, the multi-layered arrangements are fully written out by the band."
Of special note to George Harrison & Eric Clapton fans.... is guitarist Jac Bico's take on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"....played on his Gibson Gold Top Les Paul. Jac knocks it out of the park! :salude
