All-in-all, over 50 internationally known recording artists bring their unique bone-crushing slant to these remarkable songs. The album features top notch hard hitters such as Mikkey Dee (Motörhead), Eric Singer (Kiss / Alice Cooper), Simon Wright (Dio), Brian Tichy (Billy Idol), Frankie Banali (WASP / Quiet Riot), Joseph Fazzio (Superjoint Ritual), Virgil Donati (Steve Vai / Soul Sirkus / Planet X), John Tempesta (Testament), Steve Ferrone (Eric Clapton / Tom Petty), Kenny Aronoff (Smashing Pumpkins / Jon Bon Jovi), Chris Slade (AC/DC), and Aynsley Dunbar (Whitesnake / Journey).
Produced by Grammy award-winning producer/guitarist Bob Kulick and ace engineer Brett Chassen, \"Butchering The Beatles\" features 12 new, ass-kicking versions of The Beatles\' chart-topping hits, including Hey Jude, I Feel Fine and Day Tripper, plus the more esoteric Hey Bulldog, barked out by the legendary Alice Cooper and Tomorrow Never Knows, uniquely interpreted by the iconic Billy Idol, alongside classic concept songs like Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds and Magical Mystery Tour.
