Another Beatles video that I can do better than what’s on YouTube is “You Can’t Do That,” an outtake from A Hard Day’s Night that was assembled for a documentary about the movie on its 30th anniversary. I have it in stereo. The brief scratchy sounds in the right channel are in the source material.

Damn good drumming, Ringo! One of John’s strongest vocals. I love how the boys also say “befo” for “before.”
More cowbell!
Look at :16. There’s a girl or boy that could pass for John as a youngster! Excellent lip-syncing on the part of the boys. I always liked snappy this little song (“More cowbell!” ha ha). Speaking of Brits: Doug, have you heard of Adele? She’s an incredible new singer. She’s overweight but beautiful, and very good. Molly and I are both hooked. Check out “Chasing Pavements.”
