In the Beatles cut on 'Revolver,' there is no orchestra, there's just the string quartet. That's what makes this song so amazing. Yes, there are backing vocals, but....: no guitar, no bass, no drums, no piano or other keyboard. Just the vocals and the string quartet. Josh, as usual, exceeds expectations.

It could be a personal thing but prefacing with how long you’ve done something and saying that things are ‘almost perfect’ and calling people ‘kid’ feels horrible contrived saying, I’m better than you and one day you might just be as good as me. I guess I may have met too many douches in the music community

That was sweet to see the different voicings within that progression and the melody lines embellished in there. Mad respect as always 👏

BRAVO !!!! That was one of the best renditions of 'Eleanor Rigby' that I have ever heard. EXCELLENT guitar work too. I especially liked the harmonic punctuations starting at 1:26.

Josh - I just added this to my all time favorites list. To play that well (and even with chimes) while singing is no small feat. Such a good job even singing those high notes and those wonderful bass runs on the guitar I was around when the original was sung - never dreamed someone would one day have superior sound equipment at a home bedroom. Well done sir. I will now listen to it again. I'm so glad you do the classics and do them justice - and to do so with a solo voice and acoustic guitar is my favorite style.

thank you for your cover, by far the best cover of this song. it helps on tough days and I sometimes cry to it, it helps letting all my bottled emotions out. Good job keep it up!
