Description
Drum cover of Lady Madonna from The Beatles.
It's difficult to tell what's going on with the drums as they are down in the mix, sounds like there are brushes on the track. I just played it like I would play it or Ringo would have played it in the early years of The Beatles.
Wickipedia:
The piano playing on this song was inspired by 1950s rock/blues pianist, Fats Domino. McCartney recalled in 1994, "'Lady Madonna' was me sitting down at the piano trying to write a bluesy boogie-woogie thing ... It reminded me of Fats Domino for some reason, so I started singing a Fats Domino impression. It took my voice to a very odd place." Domino himself covered the song later in 1968 and it became a US Hot 100 hit (peaking at exactly #100). The song, and in particular the introduction, are similar to Humphrey Lyttelton's "Bad Penny Blues" from 1956.
