I really like the "I am Sam" soundtrack. It's all Beatles covers. I think.
Some of my faves:
Blackbird - Sarah McLachlan
You've got to Hide your Love Away - Eddie Vedder

IMHO, Oasis sounded the closest to the Beatles !!!! In a recent Brit poll of top groups in rock, Oasis was number One and Beatles number 2...go figure !!!!
