Sign of the musicpocalypse: there are two reggae bands currently on my radar who specialize in recreating Beatles tunes. Well, that's not entirely fair, as Easy All Stars is currently touring behind Thrillah, their Michael Jackson tribute and have other rock and pop artists in their sites as well. But, I needed to get them straight, so I put together a handy chart.
