SAXON let loose high-velocity cover of THE BEATLES' Paperback Writer
08 March 2021NWOBHM stalwarts SAXON have released a charged version of THE BEATLES' Paperback Writer.
The track comes from SAXON's upcoming collection of cover versions, Inspirations, which is released on March 19 and features the Yorkshire veterans taking on tracks by the likes of LED ZEPPELIN, THIN LIZZY and TOTO. Full tracklist below.
“I saw The Beatles on TV for the first time in 1963,” says Biff Byford. “It was a very inspirational moment for me to think maybe I could be in a band!”
“We wanted to do an album based on our influences, the songs and bands that inspired us to write what we did and still do,” continues Byford, “and it was also interesting to see what my voice could do as I haven’t sung many of these songs before."
The album was put together last year at Brockfield Hall near York, and was recorded in a way that reflected the analogue origins of the songs being covered.
SAXON have previously released two tracks from Inspirations: a cover of DEEP PURPLE's Speed King, and a version of the ROLLING STONES' Paint It Black.
