In My Life is a 1998 album compiled and produced by Sir George Martin.
The CD is composed almost entirely of cover versions of The Beatles songs which George Martin produced originally.
Writing for Allmusic, music critic Cub Koda wrote "The results are in the true George Martin orchestrated tradition, with several interesting twists and turns along the way." Conversely, Sarah Zupko of PopMatters wrote Martin "has chosen to go out with a whimper instead of a bang" and of the album in general; "I don’t really have to tell you that Goldie Hawn impersonating a chanteuse on “A Hard Day’s Night” or Sean Connery literally reading “In My Life” is an embarrassing display, do I?"
All songs by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, except where noted.
