I’m 67, remember watching the Beatles on Ed Sullivan in real time, and this performance made me bawl like a baby. A lot of groups play the Beatles. It’s a rare band that plays it so well that it makes me cry. Thank you, gentlemen.
You were about 7 at that time and I was 8 so The Beatles were part of your life an mine since day 1. As a fellow old dude, isn't it great to see young guys play their music some 60 years later?
I'm 70 and I was in front of the black and white TV Feb 9th, 1964 and have been a musician ever since 1964. Sixty years now and it is still my life. Can't give it up and The Beatles are still my favorite band.
I can't get over how they are able to manipulate their voices to sound just like John and Paul... Even the harmonies in the background ...It's just simply amazing they're singing ability and talent and the ability to play at the same time!
The production on the 1995 songs was always limited by technical issues. These versions are like hearing what a polished Beatles version would sound like. Gave me chills!
This is a really astonishingly accomplished homage. When I first heard Free As A Bird, approaching thirty years ago, I was left stunned at the experience of hearing the full and total Beatles sound again but with a new song, something I had imagined was inconceivable and until then had thought I would never hear again. Today, listening to this cover I've heard numerous details within that song and the other two I never realized were there, so skilfully has this band pieced all the parts together and brought them out more clearly. It's genuinely remarkable to hear this. The musicianship is superb, as is their startling ability to hear and replicate every part of the arrangement and hen perform it as one. As for the guitar solos - they are the final stamp of authenticity.
It makes me almost burst into tears. As someone from the south of England and grew up with the Beatles in the 60’s, these guys have even got the Liverpool scousy accent 😧! Anyone in their 70s will know what I’m talking about.
Such fantastic renderings of these songs. It feels like the songs are 'breathing' properly here. Maybe the studio versions of these songs always had a slightly stilted and stiff feel - but The REO Brothers are bringing them to life, and perhaps getting them closer to what they would sound/feel like if they'd been recorded during late-period Beatles.
Soy un seguidor por 30 años de los 4 de Liverpool y Puedo decir que de todas las miles de bandas que imitan a la perfección técnicamente a The Beatles, solo esta tiene el espíritu y alma Beatles en la interpretación, muchas gracias!!
Am one of the luckiest fans to have watched them performed these songs for the first time LIVE in Teatrino Promenade, Greenhills, San Juan, last Feb 8, 2024.. a very successful concert, as expected..
Philippine people are the best singers and musicians. They sing around their homes all day, and up the coconut trees they sing, and when they're asleep they singsnore.
In an era where we are constantly bombarded with “manufactured” music, REO Brothers is a welcome breath of fresh air. Their spot-on interpretations of well-loved music from a bygone era harken us to the days when music was crafted and played with so much passion. This set of 3 songs from the Beatles is a wonderful homage to one of the best rock-and-roll bands in history and further cements REO Brothers’ much deserved musical reputation.
@@arroncarter6975 lol ..manufactured band? ... that word for bands didn't exist in 60's you numpty! ... fair play that is a really funny post well done!
Oh My God!...where do the voices come from? Directly from Heaven. Your tone and harmonization is outstanding. But the tone, identical? You were born to salute the Beatles.
In my humble opinion, "Free as a Bird" was superb and even cleaner and without the excesses of the original Beatles version, enhancing the beauty of the original composition.
I belong to the 60's & 70's generation. Your music is very good & amazing to listen. I think you established a harmonious relationship on each and every member of the band. That is the most important factor to achieve your goal. God bless you more.,.
❤I never skip an advertisement whenever you guys are on!! I hope everyone does too! You deserve every penny you make! Thanks for keeping the Beatles right here!
I was wondering how long it would these guys to channel in Now & Then. Awesome is about the only word that covers their version. It's like Lennon is right there. The same with Free As A Bird & Real Love. Awesome!
When i first heard Free as a bird i doesnt give impact on me and didnt mind on finishing the video but after seeing this cover of the Reo brothers im begining to appreciate it and love it and also it got to my attention the two other song which upon hearing from reo brothers makes me search for the original sang by the beatles and i find it also beautiful song from the beatles. Its like by reo brothers inteoducing this three great song to me. And the cover has its own beauty!
If I close my eyes, I am hearing the Beatles all over again. You are all wonderful musicians. Paul and Ringo (if they have heard you) would be proud of your Beatles songs. You young gentlemen are amazing!
It takes real talent and that extra thing that made the Beatles what they were and the REO Brothers have surely got that if they aren't the original version...shows they can really feel Beatles music as the Beatles intended it to be. Just again shows how the Liverpool lads influence is phenomenal. Thank you Beatles and REO, equally appreciated!!!

Not only do they nail the instruments but they change their voices to sound like the beatles or whoever else they are covering. Marvelous❤❤
The beatles didn't sound like this on Ed Sullivan. That came alot later. These guys nailed it❤❤❤❤❤
I can't get over how they are able to manipulate their voices to sound just like John and Paul... Even the harmonies in the background ...It's just simply amazing they're singing ability and talent and the ability to play at the same time!
That's their amazing talent.❤
AI...... LOL 🤣😆
@@maxlinder5262 No, they've been doing this for a few years before there was AI... We sort of watched them grow up

Ikr?

Apple corps. has already requested Peter Jackson and his staff to fix that. They’ll be reissued surely by 2025.

Definitely agree
George is smiling from heaven at the lead guitar player.

Wow that slide guitar intro was on point!
I'm sad that we'll never get to see the Beatles perform these great songs. But I'm grateful we have the REO brothers to bring this music to life.
Reo Brothers is such an Iconic & so Great band! Incomparably excellent! 💖
Check out this Dutch band: czcams.com/video/CGGQe3gUCsM/video.htmlsi=5Wj-11EdIjUX6Fp1
Sou do Brasil...muito bom..adorei ..para bem esa rapaziada...congratulation
The REO Brothers are the Very Best tribute band on the planet...Oh yeah! Easily...hands down!
As far as the Beatles tribute bands, IMO the Analogues are the best. These young guys are good though, especially the lead guitarist.
Without a doubt! Fabulous voices and musicians!!!!
@@tonypalcic5114 Absolutely❣️ Gems, they are 💎
WOW !!!!! I just can't stop watching this, the hairs on the back of my neck are standing up. This is REO Brothers at their best. WORLD CLASS ❤
absolutely great! Don't know any other coverband that sounds this much alike. Wow!
I like how the rhythm guitarist said "made for John Lennon" at the end of Free as a Bird, just like in the recording!
Great live collage of the three post Beatle era Beatle tunes!
This has to be the best cover of 'Now and Then' performed anywhere in the world right?
They do John, Paul, George and Ringo proud!
As well as George Martin, they do George Martin proud.
And Giles Martin too.@@MarcusStaAnaBurSelF
"Now And Then" - if it's possible for John to "look down smiling", that performance should do it...amazing 👍🏻
First time hearing these guys, very impressive, keep up the great music
So great...as usual! Love the harmonies, the musicianship, the groove...just fantastic as always!
I hope Paul and Ringo get to hear this. 🙏🏼

Man, this came up on auto play and I wasn’t watching. Totally thought it was the original. Incredible
REO Brothers = Best Beatles covers
Amazing, really. Greeting from Russia. Thank you.
Had I not known better, I would have sworn I was listening to The Beatles.
The REO Brothers have once again outdone themselves. Their vocals and instrumentals are simply beautiful.
EXCELLENT !!!!!!!!!!!!!
The boys do justice to the Beatles and their songs.
You know what? The Beatles would be proud to hear this. Neat and clean.
Thanks for carrying the torch, guys...
John and George are looking down and smiling
I was never that crazy about Free As a Bird, but these guys do a great job covering it.
Am one of the luckiest fans to have watched them performed these songs for the first time LIVE in Teatrino Promenade, Greenhills, San Juan, last Feb 8, 2024.. a very successful concert, as expected..
Im a beatles fan... And proud to say THESE ARE MY FELLOW COUNTRYMEN... Reo bros. are FILIPINO!
Philippine people are the best singers and musicians. They sing around their homes all day, and up the coconut trees they sing, and when they're asleep they singsnore.
Im a Filipino and you right! Hahaha✌️
Wenn ich die Augen schließe, höre ich das Original, tolle Musiker.
As the ultimate Beatle fan, I scoff at others doing their songs....but these guys are brilliant. I will be following this fabulous bunch of young men.
In an era where we are constantly bombarded with “manufactured” music, REO Brothers is a welcome breath of fresh air.

as if the beatles weren't a manufactured band
Yes
In what way could you consider them manufactured at any point?
@@arroncarter6975 lol ..manufactured band? ... that word for bands didn't exist in 60's you numpty! ... fair play that is a really funny post well done!
@@arroncarter6975they weren’t?? they were a bunch of young adults who decided to make an album. turns out that made em into worldwide popstars
I nearly broke down. Fantastic.
Oh My God!...where do the voices come from? Directly from Heaven. Your tone and harmonization is outstanding. But the tone, identical? You were born to salute the Beatles.
Great harmonies guys
In my humble opinion, "Free as a Bird" was superb and even cleaner and without the excesses of the original Beatles version, enhancing the beauty of the original composition.
ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS
Well done lads, respect from Liverpool
I was seven years old when the Beatles came to America and played on Ed Sullivan.
An act of worship 🙏
This is the most talented group of young men in the world today. Awesome musically on every instrument, including voices in harmony.
Listening to Real Love was just like listening to the original music, that was spot on! The other two songs were amazing as well.
The Beatles Reload!..
Oh my heart is crying while lisning this band
Real love lead part at 7:25 was awesome. It was almost inaudible in the original but you still managed to replicate it. beautiful
Another Sure Hit Cover Song by this Great Band! ❤❤❤
I belong to the 60's & 70's generation. Your music is very good & amazing to listen. I think you established a harmonious relationship on each and every member of the band. That is the most important factor to achieve your goal. God bless you more.,.
The DRUMS sounded like Ken SCOTT set em up! 😯 And the George guitar parts? 😮💨
This gets a STANDING O: 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
just WOW!!!
Love the George slide guitar on free as a bird....nearest sound to the beatles without being a tribute band. Great you guys.
I believe this is new for RJ (the slide). Sounds great!
ONLY GREAT PERFORMERS CAN DO THIS.
Yes
An extraordinary version, it lacks nothing and has Beatle beauty and magic. Congratulations REO brothers.
To jest po prostu mistrzostwo,nie wiem jakim trzeba być mistrzem ,żeby zrobić tak cudownie brzmiące cowery ,to brzmi jak orginal
❤I never skip an advertisement whenever you guys are on!! I hope everyone does too! You deserve every penny you make! Thanks for keeping the Beatles right here!

Hay veces que la imitación llega a satisfacer en similitud
Amazing, perfect slide guitar. And the voices are insanely, unbelievably perfect.
Reo Brothers the Best!!!!
The Fab 5.....Perfection Now and Then.
The fab 4. Not 5

Wonderful! Just wonderful!!! Once more.
Toda vez que ouço, acho ainda mais bonita.... Parabéns !!!!
A very talented bunch of guys, excellent in every way. Thanks fellas.
Can't believe I just found this gem.
These dudes have got talent!
All 3 of these songs benefitted from being played live together in a room, the way rock is meant to be.
So good it makes me cry thinking about the past.
Brilliant. Great music. Can listen all night long. For a beatles fan spot on
Perfect.... for the third song. Magnificent ❤
Just wondering what Paul Macartney would say about this performance ."Amazing"! Keep it up,guys".👍👍👍
These guys just keep getting even better. Extraordinary!
If I close my eyes, I am hearing the Beatles all over again. You are all wonderful musicians. Paul and Ringo (if they have heard you) would be proud of your Beatles songs. You young gentlemen are amazing!
Brilliant, guys! And excellent lead guitar playing!

In ONE TAKE!!! Holy Sh**!!!
God given talent.
Lovely performance guys. Even the Fab 4 would be impressed!

Love you all. Love to hear your songs..❤❤❤❤❤
It takes real talent and that extra thing that made the Beatles what they were and the REO Brothers have surely got that if they aren't the original version...shows they can really feel Beatles music as the Beatles intended it to be.
Just again shows how the Liverpool lads influence is phenomenal. Thank you Beatles and REO, equally appreciated!!!
