David Cook rocked American Idol, yet again. [It was surprisingly entertaining and exciting to see Idol get access to the Lennon/McCartney songbook. I was worried the Idol contestants couldn’t measure up (can you say David Hernandez?)].
I’m so thrilled to have heard Cook’s rock out version of the haunting ballad Eleanor Rigby, one of my all time favorite Beatles songs.
Chikezie was fantastic too with his down-home, then rock’n rendition of She’s a Woman. As Randy says, “It was dope. Chikezie smashed it.”
And, BTW, Brooke White…Sgt. Pepper’s Loney Hearts Club Band was the first album that put me in touch with the Beatles.
But, I confess, it was the Peter Frampton/Bee Gees movie version.
I had to get that out of my system first…then I picked up The White Album and have been in love with Paul McCartney ever since.
this is ifarmertwin, like a moron, i have forgotten my password already and can’t seem to crack my own code or get google to respond .. On a side note, while working a summer job at the Johnson Co. Traffic Court, I once processed a speeding ticket for THE Peter Frampton.A photo copy of his ticket “rock star” signature and all was a keepsake for many in my dorm. And actually was leaked to the Indy Star. Looks like it is true confessions week with me. First George now Peter. What will you learn next???

How cool! Do you still have the Frampton ticket? I’d frame it.

I’d like to say that I still had it, but I am pretty sure that I don’t. If I come across it, I’ll send it your way.
