You could do this song (In My Life) with one of the unplugged styles. This is one helluva cover here, never heard Judy Collins do John Lennon's masterpiece.

I always liked the Beatles version ...easy to do on an arranger for sure. Judy is a classic. Great memories..

As a lifelong Beatles fan, I agree.
As some of you may recall, a few years ago,
I recorded an arranger rendition on my Yamaha Tyros keyboard,
of the following Beatles song (from the B side of their album Hard Days Night).
Have a listen: smile

Scott Yee: Things We Said Today; (wma audio)

For reference, you can listen to the classic Beatles original here.

Nice job Scott...great vocals and a nice piano solo...restrained, simple, and very effective.

I'm a Beatles fan as well...my favorite song, is Yesterday.

My favorite version?

This one:

Again, fine pro work, and thanks for sharing.

Ah, Oscar. There will never be another like him! Had the honor of visiting with he and a former piano tech who lived here when Oscar played the Singletary center in the mid-80's.

Everything he played was GOLD! And, he worked with two of my all-time favorites, Herb Ellis and Ray Brown, in the trio.

We do this song at weddings; I love playing the solo on the Tyros 4 Harpsichord.

I did an extensive clinic with him on the PSR-9000Pro at Yamaha Head Office in Scarborough Ontario...awesome guy...humble, great sense of humor...a real gadget freak as well.

Definitely one of my heroes.
