I had a radio show in college, and my premise was that any song the Beatles did that anyone else covered, the cover version was always better. No one ever called in to argue that point with me. Mostly because my time slot was 11-1 am on Tuesdays immediately after some other guy's 3 hour show of nothing but world folk music ended, so I suppose no one was still tuned in after that shit.
When was Eric Clapton a member of the Beatles? See, that's my point - other musicians did a better job with the material than the actual members of the band that wrote the stuff.

You cant say tjat about while my guitar gently weeps. Eric played it in one take that day in the studio.

Yes I know, but he was the pne on the guitar for the Beatles recording it. Come on, man.
(For those missing it, I agree with the sentiment, and was bring8ng up the incident to prove the point. Even George Harrison agreed back then.)
