Instrumental version of the Beatles hit Please Please Me taken from the CD The Swan Singles Collection. If anyone objects to the music or images in my videos please let me know and i will remove them.
link lived much of his young life in portsmouth, va. my hometown and i have been a fan since i was a kid. my friends, southern culture on the skids who cover a lot of link's songs and is their leader rick miller's major influence as a guitarist. so i really dig link but this version of please please me absolutley moves my soul. so strongly up beat but so hard and driving. a much more passionate version than the original and with out a word being sang.
So was this cut contemporaneous with the Beatle's release? IE: when did this version get released? It really smokes. A guy told me he had never heard of the Beatles doing this song and thought Link's was the original.
This is from the 60s? If so Link Wray also pioneered palm muting rhythm pieces!
