      It certainly is the best stage cover of this song i have ever heard. Hidalgo's guitar performance is amazing and is a big part of them nailing this song. Not many bands would or could pull it off.
      When Lennon wrote this song it was only ever intended to be a studio recording and I don't know if they ever did perform it on stage. Likely not given all the different tracks in the recording with the limited technology at the time it would have be hard if not impossible to replicate on stage,

      Ringo deserves a great deal of credit for the overall Beatles' sound period. There are a couple tunes where Paul plays the drums ("Back in the U.S.S.R.", "The Ballad of John and Yoko") and you can just tell it's not Ringo playing.
      If you want to hear how creative he was as a drummer, listen to "In My Life." Perfect beat for that song that no other drummer could've created.
      (He is also left-handed playing on a right-handed drum set, which might have helped with his creativity.)

And Wah Wah written with Eric Clapton the same day they wrote Badge for The Cream together, and later 7 songs in 7 days with Bob Dylan in his kitchen for the Wilbury's - George was also a boss, like Ringo. Wah Wah of course a comment on his dismissal as a side player in the band. th-cam.com/video/yNfBDnnZyuo/w-d-xo.html
      George Martin said it too 'In any other band, George and Ringo would have been viewed as superstars, unfortunately they were stood next to Lennon and McCartney"

    The Beatles knew this album would make a significant departure from what they were putting out.
    They were right. Their fan base changed overnight.

    WOW !!! That was unbelievable. The Beatles would have loved what Los Lobos did to their song.

      Why? This has been played by so many artists in a wide range of music styles. This is a very very special song with an incredibly deep meaning. Am sure they wished to pass on this sacred truth to their listeners. I listen to every version I can, Phil Collins, Beatles, Tangerine Dream, Los Lobos, Alison Mosshart, Chemical Brothers, and so many more.

    WOW!! I am absolutely BLOWN AWAY by this!! These guys took what I thought was an IMPOSSIBLE song to cover and, in some ways, made it even BETTER than the original, if that's possible!! The original might have been a bit "trippier", but I think this version is more "spiritual"!! Wherever John Lennon is he better be sending eternal divine energy to this band for such a beautiful and moving tribute!! Los Lobos has my enduring respect for their efforts here. BRILLIANTLY done!!

    I worked crew to their show at the UO Erb Memorial a couple years previous to this PBS special. They came out for an encore and did this one. Just pulled it out of the hat. Floored everyone.
    Wonderful band, consummate musicians and just the nicest folks you'd ever want to meet. And the loudest on-stage sound I'd ever heard up to that point.

    I had NO idea they ever went there - what a GREAT cover! How Amazing to be in the audience expecting their usual eclectic fare wit a Latin flare - and they break into THIS. I bet the place went crazy - i know I would! I've loved these guys since I first heard them back in the day...

    Now THIS is THE cover of a classic!!! David Hidalgo ...omg! Sonic overload!!!! His solos are like surfing a wild untamed wave off Cape Town, South Africa...40foot dive bombs in unchartered waters...hold on!!! It's gonna be wild! And Hidalgo delivers!!! WOW!! I've been looking all day for a decent cover of this magical tune by John Lennon; most have been lightweight renditions with groups and singers trying to be so hip as to render the song unrecognizable. Thanks, Los Lobos...u guys nailed it!

    I'm not a Los Lobos fan, came here randomly while skimming Beatles tunes... so glad I did! I usually don't bother with rock covers, but this one is fantastic. Both the technical aspects and the feel of the tune are brought out incredibly well; this performance makes a fine tribute to both the Beatles and to Los Lobos, a band I will now go listen to more of. Have a great day!

      +TheTestingGrounds I'm asked by friends often who my favorite band is, and it's always Los Lobos. They can literally play ANYTHING. Plus, when they go on the road, the entire family goes. Love that. They're all real people who like to hang out, bar-b-que, chill... and just be normal, and yet -- can play like nobody's business. And Hidalgo can play about any instrument you put in front of him. And play them well! They're amazing.
