John Lennon's Jukebox Part 1- Some Other Guy

Joh Lennon 1959

 

John Lennon had a jukebox, which contained tracks revealing many of the secrets to his song writing style. You'll be surprised how many Beatles records have their roots in the stuff Lennon compiled in his early years. This week we kick off the feature with the story of Some Other Guy and how it influenced later compositions from the great man. Pretty well every band of the era played this track, some better than others, but no one could play it like the Beatles.
