Beatles reggae cover

Post by sleng teng »

I'm in a Beatles mood these days and I was wondering what were the best reggae cover of Beatles' song ?

My favourites are "The long and winding road" covered by Dennis Brown, "Here comes the sun" by Peter Tosh, and "And I love her" by Bob Marley.

Easy Star's Lonely Hearts Dub Band is pretty much all awesome, but this is my favorite track: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kx7Akt3Sd58

"Woke up, got out of bed, ran my fingers through my dreads..." Love it!!
