The Smithereens Meet The Beatles

The Smithereens have rerecorded The Beatles' Meet The Beatles! and plan to release their version, the tribute album Meet The Smithereens! on the anniversary of the original album's release, in January 2007. Meet The Beatles! was the group's second album, but the first released in the States.
