Back in 1961, the then fledgling Beatles record their first sessions with fellow British musician Tony Sheridan, in Hamburg. He died yesterday at the age of 72.

Sheridan never rose to any great fame other than as a footnote to the Beatles saga, but he was a rockin' guitarist and I've always loved the dynamic leads he played on this version of the song "My Bonnie". It still kicks today.
