Lennon- It is his rhythm guitar that drives the band's attack. He holds his Rickenbacker in a seemingly choking grip, left hand relentlessly taut on the fretboard, powering the chords of "Roll Over Beethoven," "Hippy Hippy Shake" and "Matchbox." The latter – sung by Lennon in this incarnation – overlays Carl Perkins' original with the rhythmic drive of Big Bill Broonzy by way of skiffle and Arthur Alexander B sides, and on the Star Club tapes it asserts itself as one of their best-ever covers.
