Major Snagg

A favourite from The Beatles Please Please Me album . . .their 1st. LP. I enjoyed singing and playing this classic.

A great early Beatles song that was a hit for of Brian Epstien's 'discoveries'.

An early Lennon / McCartney song that deserves to be heard again. A classy song that was a hit for Cilla Black back in the 1960s

I recently heard a version of this song by Arthur Alexander on Lisa Tarbuck's Saturday night radio show on BBC Radio 2. It's a song that most of the 'Merseybeat' bands played at the time...including The Beatles. This is my tribute to them all.

Here's one of my mock 'Live' recordings of a song that The Beatles played in their Cavern Club days. It's a short but lively song...great fun to play.

A great song by Neil Harrison from his album...Richmond Hill (1999)

A favourite 'Merseybeat', song of mine. This is just one of the many 'covers' I've recently recorded for my Pirate Radio project...'When Pirates Ruled The Airwaves'. The album is tribute to Radio Caroline, Radio London and Radio 270.

This is a second edit. I've slightly changed parts of the guitar solo at the end. It's much more in keeping with the song.

This is a great song (in my opinion) that was abandoned by The Beatles during the 'Help' recording sessions. I'm not trying to impersonate The Beatles, merely recording a great 'lost' Beatles' song.

A great 'lost' Lennon / McCartney song...or perhaps I should say...a 'lost', Paul Mc Cartney song. Either way, it's a great song. Check out Cilla Black's version too.

My Beat 'group arrangement' and recording of another 'lost' Beatles song. This is a song that was 'given' to Peter & Gordon to sing. I'm not sure if The Beatles ever recorded it, apart from in demo form.

A nice old Rock 'n Roll song made famous by The Everley Brothers (written by Boudleax Byrant) but it was also a song that The Beatles played in the early days. It was great fun to play. Only 4 chords...G / C/ D/ F.

An instrumental version of a hit song by Billy J Kramer. Written by Lennon / Mc Cartney.

Two great songs joined together. No songs were harmed in the process. I used my homemade guitar on this recording...Briggs Polar 3. please check it out in 'my photos'

This is a great song that was 'covered' by The Dave Clarke Five . . . well, I liked the song so much when I heard it only recently, that I just had to record it myself, and give it the Major Snagg treatment !

An instrumental version of this classic song from The Beatles For Sale album (LP). I've tried to sing this one but found it a little too difficult so I decided it would have to be an instrumental. As it happens, I think it's rather good.
