If you’re going to perform someone else’s tunes, you should pick the best but the problem with covering the Beatles seems to be that most end up sounding like pale imitations. I hope you’ll agree the selections I’ve picked here however bring something else to these great songs and therefore can be considered as interpretations.

Gods – Hey Bulldog
Richie Havens – Eleanor Rigby
Fever Tree – Day Tripper/We Can Work It Out
Life – Strawberry Fields Forever
Love Sculpture – Inner Light
Jr. Walker and the All-Stars – Hey Jude
Gladys Knight and the Pips – Let It Be
Cooper, Boyes and Simpson – Think For Yourself
Dillards – I’ve Just Seen a Face
Terry Manning – Savoy Truffle
Bee Gees – Sun King

Podcast Summary

Welcome to Chef Dave’s Rock n’ Roll Kitchen

In my kitchen there’s something new every week (or so). The ingredients are generally of sixties vintage but for variety I often throw in something fresher or more aged. The main course is rock n’ roll but spiced with seasonings like blues, jazz, or C&W. In the Rock N’ Roll Kitchen you’ll enjoy treats not normally available in mainstream radio so sit yourself down and enjoy.

The dishes offered are my favorites but are they to your taste? I hope so. Maybe this style of musical cuisine is new to you or perhaps you are already familiar with it and enjoy tasting it again. You’re welcome to chow down either way and best of all, there’s no bill and you don’t need to leave a tip. Bon Appetit!

Whether it be compliments or criticisms, the chef is not temperamental and welcomes your comments at davewalsh309@yahoo.com

As I’m new to podcasting and a computer semi-illiterate at best, I’d like to recommend some who are much better at this and have inspired me to give it a try:
