Fifteen years ago, I had a five-hour repertoire with my Beatles cover band “Imagine.” Unfortunately, we only made very few video recordings of it. Here is an audio recording of our Ringo’s “Octopuses Garden.” I found a funny little story about it on the internet.

Fantastic Dieter. Wow! 5 Hour Repertoire, that’s amazing! I enjoyed your band’s version and I’m hoping the pink bear eventually got back to shore! 😉 All the best! 😎🎸😎

I wish we could all go back in time and take all this guitar goodness with us. That was a great cover of this song Dieter. I wish we could have watched the band though.
Go slow and practice correct technique, and your abilities will dramatically improve.

Terrific cover, Dieter, one of my grandson’s favourites. All the guitar work was fabulous. Were you the acoustic or electric?

JohnThank you Charjo, I played the acoustic guitar.
By the way, everyone in our band played every guitar/bass part. That’s why we constantly switched instruments during performances. We also didn’t have a drummer (too expensive, too loud, too much beer), but instead played MIDI files in the background.

That was a great cover Dieter and a cool video.

That was really cool Dieter and, I agree with Garry, a five hour repertoire takes some doing 😎

Love this cover, Dieter – really professional rendition 👏👏. But my Granddaughter didn’t like Teddy drowning and then being grabbed, “Oh NOOO – not Teddy!!” 😂😂😂
