Not worth the musical headache.

The 1980 Police song Sting refused to play on: “He did bury the tape”
The jazzy song too strange for The Police frontman.
The one musician that couldn’t handle joining Eagles: “I don’t know what it’s like”
Never feeling like they fit.
“It flipped me out”: The 2012 song Eddie Van Halen found difficult to play
A bit more challenging than usual.
The 1967 song John Lennon could never imagine making: “I would never dream”
Not how his mind worked.
“A lousy record”: The 1989 Tom Petty classic that the Heartbreakers tried to sabotage
Far from their favourite record.
The 1968 George Harrison song that humbled Paul McCartney: “Huge humble-pie stuff for Paul”
Seeing him for the genius he was.
The 1969 guitar solo Eddie Van Halen called his favourite ever: “It just fits the song”
Saying the most with one note.
