Whole Lot Better / Needles and Pins

This is a cover of two great songs from the sixties. I recorded this as part of a compilation of sixties songs that my friend Bill Morse put together.

I chose them as a medley because the 'A' chord riffs are the same and the song topics (yes, breakup songs).

As usual, I waited until the last minute to record the song. It's drums, bass, two guitars, and a brief farfisa organ intro as an homage to ? and the Mysterians' 96 Tears.

The songs writers and their respective copyrights ownership are:

Whole Lot Better (Clark) - The Byrds

Needles and Pins (Nitszche, Bono) - The Searchers

96 Tears (Martinez) - ? and the Mysterians
