“Eleanor Rigby” (Ray Charles) #35 7/27/1968

By 1968 it seemed as though everyone wanted to include Beatles songs in their repertoire. Even Ray Charles took a turn at covering this one. Look, I’m as much of a fan of Brother Ray as anyone, but this...was kind of wretched. It just didn’t click with me, nor with a lot of folks as it barely reached the Top 40.
