    This one is another less known Beatles work that I’ve really gotten into.  Really catch sound.

    Say The Word and you’ll be free….have you heard the word is Love….

     

    Edited to add:

    Oh, you wanted a trifecta. Here are two more on this theme…

    Trifecta?!… Not quite sure if I’ve ever heard of that term… If I have, I’ve forgotten its exact meaning… I know it has to do with 3….lol

      In this context it would just mean a group of three songs.

    If I Fell, You’re Gonna Lose That Girl,  and a tie between Yesterday and This Boy.

    Well, they’ve already covered my trifecta of If I Fell / When I’m 64 / Maxwell’s Silver Hammer, which is what lured me into this club in the first place.

    But if I were to extend it to a hexafecta, I’d love to hear how they’d interpret a diverse set like From Me to You / Norwegian Wood / Back in the USSR .

    Jacki, a trifecta is a horse racing term!

    A trifecta is a parimutuel (refer below), bet placed on a horse race in which the bettor must predict which horses will finish first, second, and third, in the exact order.[1] Known as a trifecta in the US and Australia[2], this is known as a tricast in the United Kingdom,[3] a tierce in Hong Kong,[4] a triactor in Canada[5] and a tiercĂ© in France.[6] A variation called “trio”, where the order of the horses is not relevant, is also offered in Hong Kong and France.[4]

    The parimutuel system is used in gambling on horse racing, greyhound racing, jai alai, and all sporting events of relatively short duration in which participants finish in a ranked order. A modified parimutuel system is also used in some lottery games.

    A “boxed” trifecta is where three horses are selected, and the player wins if these three horses finish first in any order.[1] Boxed bets are effectively equivalent to placing standard trifecta bets on all six possible outcomes of the selected horses. For example, a boxed trifecta of horses numbered 6, 7 and 9, wins if horses finish in any of these combinations of outcomes:

      Well, Thankyou Howard for definition, and since I ‘m not into horse races at all… It’ s no wonder I wasn’t really aware of true meaning…

      But for MLT Trifecta Covers, since it’s impossible to really narrow in on specifics, since I luv all equally, I’m going to go with 3 I listened to today that stands out for today only:

      – You’re Gonna Lose That Girl

      – The Night Before

      -Time of the Season

      Again it’s just impossible to exactly choose…. Lol

    You’re in luck Michael. They have already completed your trifecta.

    “You’re Gonna Lose That Girl” would be one of my picks if not already done. I just love their live version and the video was one of, if not the first I saw and got me hooked on all things MLT!

    How about the MLT do The Beatles doing Holly!

    The Quarry Men –    “That’ll Be The Day”

    14 July 1958 – Monday
    Percy Phillips’ Studio
    38 Kensington
    Liverpool
    On this day, The Quarry Men made what would become known as The Beatles’ first recording. In addition to John, Paul and George, the band still included Colin Hanton on drums and new member John “Duff” Lowe on piano.

    “Crying, Waiting, Hoping”

    The Beatles recorded the song live on July 16, 1963 for the Pop Go The Beatles radio show. The BBC recording features George Harrison on lead vocal and also features Harrison replicating studio guitarist Donald Arnone’s instrumental bridge, note for note.

    “Words Of Love”

    “Beatles For Sale” album, released on December 4th, 1964. Both the second and third verses are vocal with double-tracked harmonies providing a rich distinctive tone. Like the original.
