Are you a big fan of the Beatles?
Isn't everyone?Andy Summers: Ink Magazine
I was drawn to [Strawberry Fields Forever] in particular because it’s dark and a bit more twisted. Plus they had that fascinating backwards thing going around in it. And the Lennon vocal gets me every time. McCartney wrote the up, ingratiating melodies while Lennon usually wrote f***ed up and down. So even though this is sort of an avant-garde pop piece, Lennon brings an aspect of the blues to it.

Hey Matt. Johnny A was influenced as well - saw them in concert once also.
