I recorded everything you hear over the course of several weeks. The drum tracks were all made bar for bar. These projects take a very long time to complete, so please have the courtesy to shoot me an email if you plan on reusing these or want isolated versions. 🙂

Each song starts with a count-in to help you get the tempo, and I added mild hi-hat counts during music breaks (silence) so you can keep the time.

WHY DO THIS? The goal of this series is to bring attention to Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr’s amazing early chemistry together, which is often overshadowed by The Beatles’ excellent vocals and guitars.

Also, people have been asking me for years for tabs, backing tracks, etc! I really appreciate all the support. This is the least I can do – I hope these tracks encourage people to practice musical instruments and create their own cover songs!

Finally, I have found there’s already plenty of good guitar covers on YouTube. However, there’s not much for bass and drums on these early tracks (especially the more obscure ones)!

PLEASE NOTE: These tracks are NOT meant to be note-for-note identical. I tried to use a variety of fills and variations that you hear throughout the Beatles’ recordings. With many of these early songs, there’s no “right” way to play them – every take, live performance, and BBC cut are all a little bit different. As a result, I recommend trying to learn the overall STYLE of the instruments as opposed to trying to exactly replicate what you hear on the record. It’s more fun that way, too!
