hey a friend just sent me a song via msn called 'one is the lonliest number' and it sais its by the beatles, but i listened to it and it doesnt sound anything like the beatles! so maybe its a bootleg, or not actually a beatles song..has anyone else heard about this?!
-
I know this isn't a Beatles song, but I don't know if they've ever covered it.
It doesn't sound like a song they'd cover, though.

That's an 'oldies' classic performed by Three Dog Night in the late 60's.

Nicely done. That was Gerry Rafferty's band. Sounds like a Dylan imitation.

he was better known for winding your way down baker street.....

Yep,,,,Right Down The Line. (Great song)
Everyone should pick up 'Snakes and Ladders' also. Great album, but she's a tough find on CD.

Yes, Nilsson recorded it first, on Aerial Ballet in 1968. It's a great album, and The Beatles loved it - along with his first album Pandemonium Shadow Show. Lennon and Nilsson worked together a few times in the 70s.
Beatles tracks recorded by Nilsson: http://fortheloveofharry.blogspot.com/2008/11/nilsson-sings-beatles-1967-1980.html (includes You Can't Do That, his Beatles medley from the first album).
Nilsson for president (John and Paul interview, 1968): http://fortheloveofharry.blogspot.com/2008/11/john-paul-nilsson-for-president-1968.html
Plenty more in that blog, for those who are interested.

i appreciate that very much joe...a buddy of mine tom had his vhs converted to dvd ...he sent it to me to make copies for others at the moondog forum but i cannot get it off this disc on to my computer...well i do but it won't work on a home dvd player...this happened a few years ago...so this link will help them watch .....bless your soul... ;)
-
i sent you a link joe.....
-
Cheers PC.
The Pete Shotton book has an anecdote about the time he, Lennon and Derek Taylor first heard Pandemonium Shadow Show. I think they were tripping at the time, and listened to it over and over. At one point in the night Lennon spoke to a somewhat starstruck Nilsson on the phone - I wonder who was more confused.
Unfortunately, perhaps the best-known Nilsson/Lennon collaboration is girl private Cats, which was made during the Lost Weekend. It's a terrible record, made no better for having been produced by Lennon. Nilsson killed his voice with alcohol, which is a huge tragedy. HN also appears on Walls and Bridges.
The first link I posted above contains a cover version of Lennon's Isolation which I only heard recently. I think it was a bonus track on one of HN's CD reissues.

Hahaha! I just noticed that when I wrote about the P***y Cats album earlier, it came up as "girl private Cats" - I wonder what other text filters are on this board.
