Agreed, I really enjoy the demo version the Beatles made for them. I feel like if they had polished their version up it would have been a great fit on either one of those really
These are your chord signatures/voicings, correct? On the tabs and sheet music on line, the chords incorporate a couple of chromatic walk-downs, a couple of 6th chords maybe, just a few tweaks to follow the vocal line ..... but your barre chords sound pretty compelling.l
Mr Moonlight or Bad to Me? I'll take Bad to Me. Doesn't fit on Rubber Soul, but For Sale could use more originals. Love the Lennon demo. Can't be all bad with an aug7 chord.
Off topic question, but is there any chance of you putting up your video of New Kid In Town you had a year of two ago? Keep up the great work. You do an incredible job!
I think Billy J was managed by Brian Epstein, so there’s your connection. (BTW 2 years ago in New York, I had the pleasure of seeing BJK join the band I’d paid to see onstage, and perform another big hit “Little Children”. He still sounds good.)
i personally think the beatles should have put this song on their meet the beatles album or beatles for sale

I PERSONALLY THINK YOU'RE RIGHT.
Love all you do James! But at 70 I love when include some of these vintage classics. Thanks from Jack
Nice to hear a refreshing song ty
You're the only guitarist on youtube who gets this right!

De mis favoritos
good job james. much easier to sing in D
Quite possibly the best song the Beatles never recorded.
The Beatle chord. Actually a few of them!
This reminds me of when I was a wee little lad in the 1960s. Geeze those were the days!!! Being a teen in the 1970s was beyond awesome!!!!
Did you purchase a Chicago Music Exchange T-shirt on-line or is there a chance you have even got to the venue on Lincoln Avenue in Chicago?
Thanks for getting the augmented chords right....all of these "covers" don't get it right
Thank you Lennon/McCartney !!
this is Lennon top songwriting
A deep dig. I was also listening to another Beatle throw away yesterday - Come and get it by Badfinger, another one they should have recorded.
The fingerboard and binding work on that guitar are incredible. What make/model is it?
That’s a Martin D41.
Great chord after the G. What is that exactly? 2on the B, 2 on the G, 3 on the D ? :) Can't quite see what happening on the high E
First fret on high E.
It's an A augmented chord.
F augmented
Db aug
Wow. I was just singing this song today...
What is the chord right before the G on the verse?
Time code?

@@b.messina4175 That's a Bmin.
@@jamesjames9275 oh thanks
Mr Moonlight or Bad to Me? I'll take Bad to Me. Doesn't fit on Rubber Soul, but For Sale could use more originals. Love the Lennon demo. Can't be all bad with an aug7 chord.
Try an Am (instead of F#m) at the 1:57 mark before resolving to B7... what do you think?
Off topic question, but is there any chance of you putting up your video of New Kid In Town you had a year of two ago? Keep up the great work. You do an incredible job!
What chord @ 0:33 ?
F#m.
Man your almost as good as me dude. Just kidding. Your not old enough for that song. JJ
Thank you, love the melody songs.......
Phew !! Thought it was young girl for a moment.
Youre the man
Written by McCartney Lennon?
I don’t know if Paul had much to do with it, but they both get credit.
@@jamesjames9275 It was an early John song--1964 I think.
@@jamesjames9275 John wrote this while on holiday in Spain with Brian Epstein.
Wonderful playing!!!!
There’s one of those “Beatle chords” ....and augmented 7th in there.....spotted it straight away! 👍
Where? Where? Where? 😁👍
was this song a gift from the Beatles to BJ Kramer. ? i heard it through the years. nicely done, thanks James

best guitarist on youtube
👌🏼❤️🎸
Very well done. Billy Joe Kramer didn't, I think, get enough recognition for their work back in the day.
It’s because people like John and Paul are writing his songs for him. They’re the ones who deserve the credit. He was just a singer with a good face.
Great, thanks.
#biuriful !
I love love love this song, unfortunately there is no oficial studio recording of this track by The Beatles
At least we have a John lennon demo of it
Theres a fun mash up of the lennon demo and Bill J backing track
The genius of Paul McCartney strikes again.
This is a John Lennon song
