The Beatles and a spooky sounding request

I decided we needed some more Beatles tunes represented on the site this morning. To that end, we have new today: Day Tripper, Ticket To Ride, All My Loving, I  Feel Fine, And I Love Her and Can't Buy Me Love.

I've added a Beatles link to the Frequently Requested Composers list of links on The Changes page. This will collect the links to tunes listed under John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Lennon-McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo.

Also, Martin Eagle asked if I knew the correct key for the old standard Close Your Eyes. I checked all of my fake books and found it in the last book I had available to check before I'd have to give up. I finally decided its in Eb minor.

This is a tune I'd heard over the years but had never known its name. Thanks, Martin, for bringing it to my attention. I never knew the lyrics before of it either. They are very good.

We now have 337 tunes represented in The Changes.
