Gibb Sahib Origin: Sloop John B (142* d) RE: Origin: Sloop John B 28 Jan 18


I wrote,

"And the first rendition of John B strikes me as potentially notable in how different it is from how one might imagine a 1900s-composed pop song to be performed."

Translation: It's very different from Le Gallienne's setting.

Do you disagree?
