The Beatles | Roll Over Beethoven (1963)

"Roll Over Beethoven" is a cover version of the 1956 Chuck Berry song of the same name by the English rock band the Beatles.

The song was a favourite of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison even before they chose "the Beatles" as their name, and they continued to perform it right into their American tours of 1964.


Their version of "Roll Over Beethoven" was recorded on July 30, 1963 at Abbey Road Studios for their second British LP, With the Beatles, and features Harrison on vocals and guitar.


The song has been described as an "homage cover".
