This may sound crazy but Till There Was You contains one of my favorite solos from George, up there with Something and Let It Be , i just love how George shows how he can play a good classical solo.

haha..yeah, the song is kinda corny. I’d like that George uses a lot of jazzy chords and stuff because it shows that they were not only kids playing their instruments and doing whatever countryesque or rockandroll cover song. They listened to quite a lot of different styles and did study the records they listened to. And they learned the chords, so they put a lot of work and effort into it. They were serious about it, and they were kids. That’s the most amazing thing.

All this, plus the fact that the Hamburg versions are so much fun
Paul: Here’s another number, one that John’s gonna hate…
John: No I love it!
And it turns into a comedy act!

The solo in this one is so great. I know they didn’t compose it, but George does a great job with it. This is one of those songs I’d love to play if I ever joined a jazz group.
I've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

Till There Was You is one of my favourite covers The Beatles did. I love Paul’s vocals on it and the instrumental break.
