Looking Through a Glass Onion
The Beatles Psychedelic Songbook 1966-1972
(Grapefruit)
★★★★
THE BEATLES’ Revolver, Sgt Pepper, White Album, Magical Mystery Tour and Abbey Road sets provided the source for countless cover versions and reworkings of Lennon and McCartney‘s album tracks and this 3CD set features some of the more adventurous and radical reworkings of their songbook.
Among them are covers from well-known artists such as Deep Purple, The Hollies, Yes, The Tremoloes, along with a spaced-out Duffy Power, avant-garde sax man Lol Coxhill, rockers Stone The Crows, Spooky Tooth and prog rockers Affinity — all doing I Am The Walrus — The Shadows, Cliff Bennett and the Rebel Rousers and guitar virtuoso Davy Graham. And Dame Vera Lynn.
