The Beatnix - Getting Better (Beatles cover) - 18 June 1993 Ray Martin Midday Show TCN9

In 1993 Sydney Beatles tribute group The Beatnix performed Getting Better live-to-air on the Midday show on TCN9 in Sydney. The musicians performing as The Beatnix on this track were Bruce Coble (myself, as "John"), Steven Shipley (as "Paul"), Marcus Phelan (as "George") & John Taylor (as "Ringo").
This one is quite a difficult number for the "Paul" part, & Steven Shipley showed what a professional he was with this number, taken from the classic album Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.

He was pretty special...

[@pikemeredith5604]

@@BruceCoble Can't believe it's almost 10 years for dear Steve. Maybe he's up there jamming with John & George.

Wowwwwww Guys!!!!! You guys Amazing! And i’m amazed with the Paul one, it’s very hard to sing While played the Bass line of Getting Better. And he did it very smooth so Good!!!!!!!! AWESOME!

[@philleblanc7794]

Good job guys

[@coZyLos]

how he is able to sing while doing that bassline is very impressive, good work

[@BruceCoble]

It is impressive - & not easy 👍

[@JudePittingerMusic]

Wow, he nailed that Pepper bass tone

[@BruceCoble]

Steve did do a great job on what is actually a difficult track to play both the bass part and the lead vocal part in a live performance.

[@noobitronius]

You guys really nailed the sound. I grew up listening to the Beatles, and this group replicates the music better than any group I've heard (1964, Rain, the Fab Four, etc..). Shout out to the drummer for holding it all together - the musicianship of all of you is clearly elite.

[@BruceCoble]

A difficult song to do well live, but Steve's vocals & bass playing nails it for me...

[@swettyspaghtti]

solid job boys

[@marclaforest3282]

Perfect !! You nailed it not an easy song to do live.I love your Épiphone Sheraton amazing guitar weight a ton, but the sound is amazing never (scream) like the Casino..

[@BruceCoble]
