I don't think I'd have the resourcefulness to play Beatles tunes on a 
harmonica in public unless I had someone like Sir George Martin to arrange 
and provide my backing tracks.  Without that, most of the tunes are a 
little, er, threadbare to say the least.  Much better with the words.  So 
fair dues to yer man in Japan, say I!   ;-)
