Great Bayless interleaved with mediocre Pops

"These discs contain all of the tracks from one of Bayless' earlier albums, interspersed with really awful arrangements of some Beatles tunes for Pops orchestra and chorus (!). I thought this was a new album of Bayless' Beatles arrangements for piano and orchestra, with John at the piano. Boy, was I surprised! Don't buy this CD. Get Bayless' own Beatles CDs instead."
Excellent improvisation of Beatles themes.

"John Bayless demonstrates a unique understanding of the Baoque style. He is able to bring the nuances of the Baroque to pop music. The counterpoint and melodic motifs of the period style are reflected in such gems as Imagine, Hey Jude and Something. I wish I had the sheet music!"
