Beatles fans love to explain that one key to the successful partnership of John Lennon and Paul McCartney was their contrasting songwriting personalities: Lennon was the tongue-in-cheek, sardonic wit, McCartney, the earnest balladeer. On john pizzarelli\'s John Pizzarelli Meets the Beatles (RCA Victor), a well-conceived tribute that sets the duo\'s classics in jazz-trio and big-band arrangements, the singer/guitarist hits the mark most often when taking on McCartney\'s tunes. He approaches \"Can\'t Buy Me Love,\" \"When I\'m 64,\" and \"Get Back\" with a playful wink, jumping off his speedy melody lines and the rising brass sections for extended improvisational tradeoffs with pianist Ray Kennedy. Pizzarelli adds colorful touches like scatting and even ad-libs his own lyrical verses based on the originals. Likewise, he treats an instrumental version of \"Eleanor Rigby\" with an aggressive sense of swing. And his intense vocal on a percussive \"Oh, Darling\" helps the tune rise above mere cover-band fare. However, when Pizzarelli presents ballads like \"You\'ve Got to Hide Your Love Away\" and \"Long and Winding Road\" with maudlin arrangements, he pretty well grinds the party to a halt.
