Rickie Lee Jones does The Beatles

Posted about 4 years ago
One of my favorite CDs by *Rickie Lee Jones* is the one of all cover tunes, ??It's Like This??. I've always loved her voice. Her own compositions? Sometimes yes, sometimes no.As Beatles covers go, this is not a re-invention but not a slavish copy either. A good Sunday morning tune.

    Bartleby says I like Rickie Lee's voice on this cover - the piano works aptly for a Sunday. -- This Macca's composition is also one my favourite mental jukebox track.

    Jonh Ingham says One of the best songs MacCartney wrote. This seems to be a popular song for ladies to cover - Emmylou Harris does a real heartbrak version of it.

    Spike says To hear her sing this song so well is a wonderful way to finally get to hear her, not just hear of her.

    Charley Rogulewski says Yeah, she does do a great job on this one. (funny...her and cat power both released a covers record in 2000).

    Mike the Knife says One of my fave Beatle numbers, too - no matter who wrote it. And a fine and tender interpretation from Rickie Lee.
