There are countless examples of bands releasing songs that are direct, obvious attempts to sound like The Beatles. Most sound exactly the same: slow 4/4 tempo, overly twee vocals, White Album descending minor chords on a piano. It's usually sterile and derivative.

It hit me, I can't think of any Beatles knockoff that tries to emulate the country-western influence George's guitar work. Crisp, peppy western guitar is present and obvious in nearly every Beatles song that features guitar.
