Under The Covers: Other Artists Covering Beatles Songs: A Lennon-McCartney song- sung by John on their third album A Hard Day’s Night- here ‘ I Should Have Known Better’-is covered by Phil Ochs. When researching for this song I was surprised to see that Phil Ochs had covered the song. It was included on this album- The Broadside Tapes Vol. 1.
I wasn’t aware of it either. I suppose we should have known better!😆
lol!
I’ve heard the name Phil Ohs but know nothing about him other than what you just shared. I don’t like the cavalier attitude he sang it with.
Ochs was a political folk singer from back in the 60’s- he grew mentally unstable in the 70s and ended up killing himself in 1976 at the age of 35
OK now I feel bad for my comment 😦
he’s been dead 45 years – I think it’s ok
