The next episode of Mike Solof's 90's radio show is a favourite of mine, as it features various covers of one Beatles' song. While was digging through the internet one day. Mike thought that although it’s kind of true that 'Yesterday' was the most covered song that the Beatles ever did, to his surprise he also found hundreds of covers of the song 'Tomorrow Never Knows'. This seems like such an odd choice, not only being an Indian bass tune, but also that it's based on just one chord, that you'd think it would be too monotonous to tackle. However, he soon discovered that there were many, many, many different covers that he was able to find, very few of which sounded the same, and so he soon had an entire hour's worth for an episode of his show. It's a testament to Mike's deep diving skills that despite the fact that this whole show plays just one song, your attention doesn't wander, and you don't lose interest until The Beatles/The Chemical Brothers have closed the show with their own rendition of the track.
