Best Beatle Cover Versions? With a Little Help From My Friends by Joe Cocker

The best-known interpretation of a Beatles song was performed sensationally at Woodstock in 1969. On Sgt. Pepper With a Little Help From My Friends is a charming sing-along, ideally suited to Ringo's vocal range. 

Joe Cocker takes it to a different place.

Paul's opinion

Paying tribute to the late Sheffield singer, Paul McCartney said:  

I remember him and [producer] Denny Cordell coming round to the studio and Saville Row and playing me what they recorded. It was just mind-blowing. He totally turned the song into a soul anthem, and I was forever grateful to him for doing that."
