This may well be the only cover of a beatles song that sounds better than the original and I never thought I could possibly write that sentence which sounds like heresy even to me. Just heard McGuinn give a talk about that amazing era and how they blatantly and successfully copied the beatles.

Love George, LOVE the Beatles, love "If I Needed Someone", but "Bells of Rhymney" kicks it's ass...

@92ninersboy It's not a bad sound, it just inspire me like the old Byrds sound. The 12 string was the feature in this song and it's hardly heard here other than him playing the solo. It's more of a 6 string sound. And the voice.....all in tune and that but he just doesnt have the character like he did. He's a lot older so he's not going to sound like he did at 24. Bells is probably my fave Byrds track.

@genericgeorge I definitely don't agree with you - I think McGuinn sounds beautiful on this track, both guitar and vocals. He really turns this into a Byrds track, which if you know the history of it, you know that Harrison lifted the guitar vamp from The Byrd's "The Bells of Rymney". This isn't disputed, Harrison called McGuinn to tell him about it before The Beatles even released the song.

or convincingly

McGuinn's voice has lost it's old bark and bite. It's really watered and down sterile here. The new digital recording tools just dont capture the old classic Byrds sound for me. The magic just isnt there or maybe McGuinn has lost the fire in his belly. Or maybe he just cant sell a Beatles tune convincly

normally, Beatles covers are awful because nobody can sing like them, but Roger's voice is something unique and fits the song because this song is based of Roger/ the Byrds "Bells of Rymney"
