A quirky little tune from the White Album to mark its reissue today. “Don’t Pass Me By” marked Ringo's first solo songwriting credit on a Beatles album.

I love this track Bern.
Didn't the boys write this on the upper deck of a bus going into town when they were about 16 years old.

I don't know mate but given your knowledge of the Fab Four I wouldn't bet against it.

Given tomorrow's anniversary of his passing, it has to be a John track.

Nice one, thanks Bern.
Here's the one I was "singing" all afternoon yesterday.. I'm perpetually amazed that I can remember the words to 55 year old songs but I can't remember why I went upstairs...

One for the reggae fans. UB40's Ali Campbell turns 60 today so here's his take on 'Any Time At All'.

I'm not a fan of reggae or UB40 but this isn't as bad as I expected it to be. Have a listen and see what you think.
