The Beatles To-do: You can HELP!:
As the project is currently just starting, our more experienced editors are working on the project infrastructure, classifying articles, and listing/assessing red links. Your assistance is welcome. If you would prefer to just edit - and why wouldn't you? - we have a choice selection of red links to turn blue and articles to clean! Now let's get busy.
Full list & instructions.
- Lists to complete:
- Wanted Pics/Graphics: Mal Evans, Flying (song), Astrid Kirchherr, Jimmy Nicol, Cynthia Powell, Alistair Taylor, Ivan Vaughan, Tittenhurst Park, Tony Barrow. We need a better open-licenced photo for the project, to replace the Abbey Road crossing. If you provide a photo, please remove the ReqPhoto tag from the article's talk page and remove the article from this list.
- Project Discussions: The Beatles history, Individual songs vs longer album articles, Beatle wives, Merge/split proposals
- Project: Add {{WPBeatles}} to the talk pages of all Beatles-related articles. Send a newsletter to members, canvas for new members, and coordinate tasks. Enter articles classed as stubs into this list (under To Expand) and also list articles needing cleaning and other work here.
If you complete one of these tasks, please remove it from the list and add your achievement to the project log.

[edit] Tom Petty only version?
Was there ever a version of this song made which was only sung by Tom Petty? I clearly remember seeing a video of this song and I remember Tom Petty doing the vocals. The song had more of a "Tom Petty" sound to it, with a bit more guitar during the middle portions, and so forth. Any idea?? Davez621 12:49, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] RE: Tom Petty Only
Will this really depends on what you mean by Tom Petty 'only.' This song does not appear on a Petty album. However, I have seen it performed on the George Harrison Tribute Album. There where others on stage with him who were not the Heartbreakers and Petty did most of the vocals.
I am willing to bet that he has performed this in concert at least once. Maybe a bootleg?
[edit] Unique Language
The term:
"mid-tempo acoustic rock structure"
when searched in google only appears in wikipedia in this article and another for Tom Petty. Is this commonly used or just modifiers bunched together? If so then I would ask that an expert write a more critical review of the song.
