«Συμπληρώθηκαν πρόσφατα πενήντα χρόνια από τότε που οι Beatles έκαναν κανονική εισβολή στην Αμερική και άλλαξαν την πορεία της ροκ μουσικής. Για να το γιορτάσω άρχισα να δουλεύω ένα καλλιτεχνικό μουσικό πρότζεκτ που ονομάζεται "Come Together with The Beatles and Friends", ένα remix/mashup άλμπουμ που συνδυάζει τα αυθεντικά φωνητικά των Beatles με μια μεγάλη ποικιλία από διασκευές των 50 αυτών χρόνων από άλλους μουσικούς. Ακούστε αυτό που είναι πια παλιό με νέο τρόπο, σιγοτραγουδήστε τα κομμάτια και μοιραστείτε τα με τους γονείς σας. Με εκτίμηση, Jeff Drew (The Quick Brown Fox)».
Αυτά γράφει ο Jeff Drew που έκανε τον κόπο να μαζέψει ένα σωρό διασκευές από κάθε τραγούδι των Beatles και να φτιάξει για το καθένα και ένα mashup με όλες μαζί σε ένα εκπληκτικό μιξ. Το πρότζεκτ συνεχίζεται, αλλά προς το παρόν έχει έτοιμα αυτά (στη λίστα είναι και όσες διασκευές έχει χρησιμοποιήσει για το καθένα).
