Have you considered a bluesy number like "Yer Blues"? I am not a musician, but to my ears, there is really nothing very complex going on in that song. It is one of my favorites on the White Album.

No matter what, good luck to you and your bandmates.

Thank you Zig :)

We have actually attempted "Yer Blues", and its not terribly hard, but to get it just right is tough.  It's like "Happiness Is A Warm Gun" in my mind.  Where its not terribly hard individually, but together to get it just right takes a bit of effort with all the time changes.

Do you guys find the early songs or older songs harder to play?  Sure there are exceptions on every album as far as difficulty goes, but in general what do you think?

I've done one cover… but it's cheating because it's on Garage Band. blue-meanie

Anyway, it's horrible. It's a cover of Taxman, and I couldn't figure out the guitar chords, so I just played something that sounded right. I'm sure the bass isn't right, and the guitar solo is just awful. I had a really hard time trying to figure it out, so I basically just improvised. And it wouldn't even let me reach one of the higher notes, so it sounded even worse. My timing is off, and the drums aren't even close to correct. The only thing good about it is the singing- which isn't even that good, although the harmonies are kinda cool. Whatever. It's a start.
