All You Need Is Love

AMG Review of All You Need Is Love

All Music Guide

A collection of Beatles covers, All You Need Is Love finds the Canadian Brass turning in warm, pretty versions of such Lennon and McCartney staples as "When I'm Sixty-Four," "Michelle," "Penny Lane," "Yesterday," "She's Leaving Home," "Eleanor Rigby," "I Want to Hold Your Hand," and "All You Need Is Love." There are no real revelations here, nor are there any surprising reinterpretations, but the entire thing is quite enjoyable, particularly for longtime followers of the Canadian Brass.
