I've picked off a few Beatles numbers, but technically I wasn't doing it from vinyl. I knew the songs from when I was a kid and had them on a record, but I'd replaced the albums with tapes or CD's long before I picked up the harp in earnest. I think the first Beatles tune I picked off part of was the melody for Hey Jude, but the first Beatles harp part I picked off was Love Me Do.
it is a semi-mythical petroleum based substance from the time when flying dinosaurs stole our children. commonly black in color but occasionally red, these were formed into circles or discs called records. they said stuff like stereo, mono, quadrophonic, hi fi,33rpm 45 rpm 78rpm LP, and gobbledygook like that.
sometimes they contained music,see mozart, sometimes cacophony; cross reference Blue Cheer.

easy, i think that was called Hullabaloo or Shindig. Facinating stuff! even if you aren't an historian.) even as a lay person, i found the dance antics of these crested war painted savages endearing. ----------

Piano Man from a cassette, and Low Rider from VHS. I did listen to "love me do" on Vinyl as a kid, but that was before I tried harmonica. ---------- 12gagedan's YouTube Channel
I finally got this studio version of "Hitch'Hikin' from a Dutch band called Livin' Blues, appeared early 70's. Incredible band, I recorded much from their vinyls. I suggest you try to find "Black night" on youtube, live version, duration: more then 9 minutes. The harp player, John Lagrand, was 56 years old when he died, in 2005.
Listen and have thrills.
