''Fake'' Beatles songs
« on: July 08, 2008, 12:54:30 PM »

My father bought a Beatles bootleg some time ago with several tracks which sounds quite a bit like The Beatles, but it's obviously not them. The bootleg was called ''You Never Heard'', or something like that. I found it rather funny that someone was trying to pass that off as legit Beatles tracks. Here are a couple of them, for the people who haven't heared those:

1. I Love You Too

2. Shades Of Orange
http://www.zshare.net/audio/149174120ef56f96/

3. Oh, I Need You
http://www.zshare.net/audio/14917458d1e303a9/

4. Cheese And Onions
http://www.zshare.net/audio/14917516431cb25f/

5. Like A Rainbow
http://www.zshare.net/audio/14917678496f6607/

All pretty good songs actually. Does anyone know who sings the first one? Sounds quite a bit like Paul McCartney. I read it's The Fourmost, a band who covered Hello Little Girl and passed it off as their first single.

^^ Thanks for the link.

No, I don't think it was that album. I'll look it up tonight and make some scans.
