"Hey Bulldog" is a song by the English rock band the BEATLES released on their 1969 soundtrack album "Yellow Submarine". Credited to Lennon–McCartney, but written primarily by John Lennon, it was finished in the recording studio by Lennon and McCartney. The song was recorded during the filming of the "Lady Madonna" promotional film, and, like "Lady Madonna", is one of the few BEATLES songs based on a piano riff.
It had a working title of "She Can Talk To Me". For many years, "Hey Bulldog" was a relatively obscure and overlooked song in the BEATLES' catalogue; it has since been reappraised by fans and a number of critics and musicians as one of the band's best rock songs.
Today's version is taken from the 2006 the compilation "Butchering The Beatles" was unleashed featuring a slew of heavy metal BEATLES' covers, including Alice Cooper's version of "Hey Bulldog" with Steve Vai on guitar, Duff McKagen on bass, and MOTÖRHEAD madman Mikkey Dee on drums. Cooper's version of "Hey Bulldog" is a nice crunchy riff on the original thanks to the talent of this one-off supergroup.
