The songs of John Lennon and Paul McCartney were frequently covered in all fields of music. It was inevitable that many of the best covers would emerge from a genre of popular music that was so important to all four Beatles. "Come Together" presents a cross-section of Lennon & McCartney covers from artists as diverse as hard-core bluesman Lowell Fulson and supreme exponents of "sweet soul", the Moments, via such stellar names as Al Green, Chubby Checker, Little Richard, Otis Redding and Aretha Franklin. The range of repertoire covers virtually the entire recording and songwriting career of Lennon & McCartney, and embraces both their first big US hit I Wanna Hold Your Hand' and their last,The Long And Winding Road'. Many of the inclusions will possibly come as complete surprises even to those who think they know their Beatles covers inside out. This is a collection that is essential for both serious soul collectors and the still-vast legion of admirers that simply have to have every note of music associated with any of the Beatles.
