Simon and Garfunkel, The Dangling Conversation. A lovely song, if a bit pretentious. Paul Simon was an English major.
Beatles, We Can Work it Out. Listen for the time signature change from 4/4 to 3/4.
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, You Really Got a Hold on Me
Barbara Lynn, You'll Lose a Good Thing. Her moves and appearance are reminsicent of Jimi Hendrix -- or the other way around. Check out how she strums that left-handed Telecaster.
EmmyLou Harris, Save the Last Dance for Me. That's one big guitar.
Marty Robbins, Blue Spanish Eyes. What a wimpy guitar!
Dalida, O Sole Mio. Das Ewig-Weibliche zieht uns hinan!
Melina Mercouri, Never on Sunday. Ditto!
Nana Mouskouri, Farewell Angelina. One of Bob Dylan's most haunting songs.
Freddy Fender, Cielito Lindo. Tex-Mex version of a very old song.
Marty Robbins, La Paloma. Another old song dating back to 1861.
