Another great cover - “And I Love Him” - (Esther Phillips)
September 17th, 2007
One of the best ever remakes of a song by The Beatles - the opinion of none other than John Lennon himself as you can see for yourself via this grainly old black-and-white clip.
It is of course not the most famous of all The Beatles’ songs, and so in case you’re not familiar with it, and happened to wonder, no, the original wasn’t the Fab Four’s expression of love and devotion to another man: this version just sees the word ‘him substituted in for ‘her’!
“Bright are the stars that shine…” and on this version Esther truly shone.
