Tomorrow Never Knows is a very good choice from The Beatles as well as from Manzanera´s 801. Simply told, excellent thing!

Great song. Actually I love the tabla as much as the sitar. Dig the crazy time signature in the instrumental section. I also like the way Harrison counts everyone back in after the solo.

I like Norwegian Wood as well.

By the way, you missed out the rather excellent The Inner Light.

Can't vote, but gotta be Tomorrow Never Knows for me! Yeah the 801 version is cracking as well.

Within You Without You is surely my favourite! I love the middle part. Tomorrow Never Knows is also very good besides being unique. I find yet that there isn't a lot of sitar in TNK, apart from the intro.

Although i prefer Tomorrow as a song, i feel the Sitar is just a nice add on.  In the case of Within You it is the main component of a magnificent song so it gets my vote.

Norwegian Wood is a simple and extremely complimenting application. Within You Without You is gorgeous but to me it slows down Pepper drastically. I'd rather hear Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane on there...I know it's blasphemy!
It's funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you viddy them on the screen.
