    The "one for you, 19 for me" and the "should five percent appear too small" were accurate. The Beatles were in the 95% tax bracket in England at that time.
    That was part of why the Stones fled to France when they were recording "Exile on Main St.".

  • @CuriousGeorge1111
    @CuriousGeorge1111 9 месяцев назад +4

    George finally gets some shine, OPENING a Beatles album with a classic track--for a spiritual guy, George write many songs about being annoyed. :) George was salty about England's 95% tax rate on his income--the Beatles all emigrated to the US to avoid it. And yeah, I'm sure George listened to James Brown. All the Beatles were big soul/R&B fans, and covered many songs on their early albums. For example, Paul's Long Tall Sally is excellent.
    I'm so glad to see you guys reviewing earlier Beatles albums, when they were in their prime, rather than The Beatles (White Album), when they were falling apart. I recommend the experimental albums--in chronological order, Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper's, Magical Mystery Tour. IMO this is peak psychedelic, experimental, cooperating Beatles.
    Thanks for all you do.

    @Ken_Dodds_Tickling_Stick 9 месяцев назад +6

    George wrote this song because at the height of The Beatles touring years, they were paying 95 pence of every pound they made was paid to the Taxman.
    So the line 'theres 1 for you, 19 for me" relates to the old £1....which comprised of 20 shillings....1 shilling was 5 new pence...and this is what they would have liked, but unfortunately was the opposite way around.

    • @bookman7409
      @bookman7409 9 месяцев назад +1

      True, the UK had a tax policy to "make the rich pay their fair share", but that didn't really apply to the established wealthy class, only those who had a lot of success in a short period of time, like the Beatles. They eventually found workarounds, but the gov't taking 95% of what you earned in the name of fairness never feels fair at all.
      I'm not certain, but I believe this ruinous tax structure is also what forced Tolkien to sell off the non-book rights to the Hobbit and LOTR, since he got caught in a ruinous position over taxes. Way to reward world-altering talent, UK, making sure that don't actually get RICH rich, like the landed gentry's the best and fairest possible thing to happen to you. And if you buy that, I have a bridge I'd like to talk to you about...

  • @JJ8KK

    IMO Paul McCartney was the superstar musician on this song written by & sung by George. He not only did that dominant bass line throughout, he also played that blistering lead guitar solo that they used. To my ears, Paul used to do some of his best bass work and vocal harmonies on George's & John's songs during this period. (ex: *If I Needed Someone,* George & *And Your Bird Can Sing* & *Rain* & *Hey Bulldog,* John)

    As a huge Beatles fan, you're dipping into a very deep well. My favorite albums of theirs in no particular order began with Rubber Soul then Revolver, Sgt Pepper's, The White Album (not a big fan of Yellow Submarine), Abbey Road and finally Let it Be. They IMHO were peaking at the height of their creative and musical powers and pushing boundaries.
    Don't get me wrong. I love their earlier pop albums. They were great for what they were as very young super talented musicians. With that said, beginning with Rubber Soul there was a huge change in their musical journey, a maturity and experimentation that only comes with experience and living life which of course they did.
    Great stuff.

When he was in fine form, Harrison could hold his own vocally, never in Lennon’s or McCartney’s range but, he was a good singer non the less. Great as a background vocalist during the group’s tenure.

    Thanks guys. Everything jumps out at you on this song but the backing harmonies are a real highlight for me. Coming up on this album is a song that Paul wrote called "Here, There, and Everywhere. John is quoted as saying it is his favorite song on the album.

    Everybody here covered their musical and lyrical greatness, but imo they were all time travelers.

    The "here's one for you, 19 for me" was no joke. At the time in England, they were in a tax bracket where literally, they were being taxed at that rate. And as others have pointed out, no, it's not John singing or writing the song, this is a song by George.

    Now you're getting into the mature Beatles, my favorite period: Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper, The White Album, Abbey Road. GREAT stuff.

    Killer track off my favourite Beatles album, talk about firing up my work day. This one was written by George Harrison, after he got to feeling pretty outraged at his tax bill - really shows his strength as a songwriter. Great choice you guys, and great reaction as always - peace and love from Canada ☮

      Best album, and massive here in Canada.Struggled at first in some US markets because of Eleanor Rigby's church and priest references following John's "more popular than Jesus" comment.

    Aloha gentleman, I have a black t shirt with the Revolver album in pristine condition. Oh yah. Great album. George got to shine on this album. Check out his album All things must past. He had the 1st number 1 song at least 8 months before John and Paul

    That's George singing and playing guitar except for the solo which is Paul.There was some inspiration from James Brown and the Batman theme song

    During their early career, the Beatled were taxed at 95% for World War II reparation in the 1960s from the 1940s. So when Geroge Harrison sang "There's 1 for you and 19 for me..." he was not lying.

    This is the last album before Sgt. Pepper’s - at this point the boys had discovered LSD . You can hear the influence on “ Tomorrow never knows “.

    Speaking of Batman, the Brit band The Jam did a rollicking cover of the theme from the tv show.
