I am putting together an on-line list of cover versions of songs by
The Beatles.  A bit daft, you might say (well, Steve C. might say! :-))?  
Perhaps.  Let me clarify a bit...

I'm basically interested in unusual or obscure covers.  (I already
have many of the more obvious/well-known covers, but send 'em along
anyway in case I missed one.  Besides, I like getting e-mail!  :-))
For example, sources say there are something like 5000 different
versions of "Yesterday" floating around out there.  While I'm not so
much interested in a version by, say, Anthony Newley, I would be
interested in a version by, say, Skinny Puppy.

I'm primarily interested in recorded versions, but I'll also take live
versions by well-known artists (for example, Bob Dylan has recently
performed "Nowhere Man" in concert).

For any that you come up with, PLEASE EMAIL, DO NOT POST (I don't read
all of the above boards).  Again, PLEASE EMAIL any responses.  For
each song, please include the following info:

Song Title   Artist   Album(single/live)   Year(if known)


An initial list (once the initial barrage of responses dies down) will
be posted to rec.music.beatles.  Further copies of the list will be
available upon request.

Thanx in advance!
