Album Review - Various Artists - This Bird Has Flown: A 40th Anniversary
Tribute to The Beatles' Rubber Soul
It's an impossible task to try to top what The Beatles did with its
songs. Fortunately, it's just as difficult to ruin them completely,
especially considering that the band's compositions are such perfect
slices of pop music that they put forth an invitation that most artists
simply can't ignore. In honor of the 40th anniversary of Rubber Soul,
This Bird Has Flown assembles a diverse line-up in order to recreate in
its entirety what is arguably The Beatles' finest effort. For the
record, all of the album's 14 tracks are remarkably well-played, though
it certainly isn't surprising that most of those who were involved in
the project took a conservative approach and add merely minor twists to
The Beatles' familiar renditions.
