Genre: Beatles pop/rock
Places I remember: Real Groovy Records
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: A Day In The Life
Gear costume: Getting Better
Active compensatory factors: If the idea of a doo wop, rock a billy, Sha-Na-Na style retro rock'n'roll outfit doing the whole of The Beatles' album is your thing, then, this is a lotta fun.

It's fun trying to match the inspiration to the treatment - for instance the opening song - Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, is done a la The Coasters doing Youngblood, Lucy is Jerry Lee Lewis' Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin On, Getter Better is Del Shannon's The Wanderer, and so on.
A Day In The Life, reconditioned as a Buddy Holly song (think Oh Boy, Peggy Sue, Every Day, Heartbeat) is probably the most successful.
Where do they all belong? A one off, most definitely.
