This song ends side one, flip it over and you get "Here Comes the Sun". Easily one of the best albums of all time.
Can't wait until they hear that drum solo on the 2nd side.
Hard to pick, but possibly my fav Beatles album.
Yep that sequencing … just incredible
4 sure!
Speaking of Sun, the Beatles rip off I Want You (She's So Heavy) from House Of the Rising Sun by The Animals.
Tom Petty said it all " there's the Beatles and there's evertbody else ."
"Heaviest song ever. Metal before metal." - Wolfgang Van Halen
Well he would know😎
You have to remember, when this came out, nobody had heard anything like this. Truly groundbreaking
You could say that about ALL their albums, really. Rubber Soul. Revolver. Sgt. Peppers(!) Just wow...
Eh, that's debatable. this album came out in late 1969. Bands like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, etc were already around by then and producing much heavier more groundbreaking music. The earlier Beatles albums from the mid 60s are absolutely revolutionary though. Revolver is one of the first true psychedelic albums ever.
That is so true. Imagine being influenced by their music as a teenager. Really impacted my life for sure.
@@SoloTravelerOffTheBeatenPath Yep exactly, not the first heavy song, but they really took that influence and ran with it. It didn't create metal, but certainly influenced the doom subgenre. Very well done for a band that rarely got that loud. My favorite thing about it is how it mixes the nascent metal heaviness with their trademark version of psychedelia creating in my opinion their most accurate sonic recreation of an intense psychedelic experience since Tomorrow Never Knows
Floyd, too, was putting out very "different/experimental" stuff by then. ELP, The Doors, even early YES and Bowie, I believe. Thing is 1967-1973, say, was just, like, this Never Since or Again miraculous bursting forth of creative rock/pop musical brilliance. @@SoloTravelerOffTheBeatenPath
Gents. Noone compares.Noone. There will never be another Beatles. ❤
Now imagine it’s 1969 and your 14 and your parents gave a stereo system and your older sister gave you headphones and now you listen to this for the first time. It was so devastating that in a couple years they’d breakup 😮
It happened to Brian Wilson but with rubber soul. He spent one month or something like that, in his beach house, high as the moon, playing that record over and over again. He was upset and sad because his father wanted him to keep on writing catchy and easy teenage pop hits.
Rubber soul have him the boost to develope pet sounds and stop composing teenage music to go after something more elaborated and mature.
When Brian delivered Pet sounds the Beatles answered with revolver and Sargent pepper's.
That ending could have easily gone on another 10 minutes and I would have been perfectly fine with it.
There was The Beatles and then there was everyone else. Hard rock with elegance-great comment. 🔥🔥
Absolutely. As a solo artist/songwriter it's Bob Dylan.
The Who are my first choice.
@@324cmacThey are immense , but dont forget the Kinks
Bro put it so well - “when the Beatles do hard rock there’s an elegance to it” 👌👌👌perfect
The Bass Line is killer, and the Vocals too - Billy Preston mixing in that special spice, Ringo so smooth and on point. The boys were dangerous. HEAVY!!
On their last albums, I never know who is playing what. Often the four of them were not together in the sessions.
Heavy as Everest is Tall! 🎸
@@chrisjamieson3452 everyone is mostly playing "his" instrument tho, not like on the White Album..more band feeling
Yeah, Billy almost was a 5th Beatle.
Peter Framptons Les Paul standard 👍 The Beatles Enough Said 🪴
If there is a BETTER ALBUM then 'Abbey Road' I need to HEAR IT!
Demon Days by Gorillas is not better, but damn, in complexities and layered ideas and influences and elegance it’s the only one I can think of that comes into the vicinity 😅
"Ringo just softly cooking back there". Yep. Despite what people like to say, Ringo was ALWAYS softly cooking back there.
And he never missed a beat
@@flipflopmcgurt3403 Ever
“Their hard rock is elegant” you guys just nailed it!
For example, note the elegance of Helter Skelter.
The ending puts you in a trance, then abruptly snaps you out of it!!
that's exactly how I feel.
Didn't the story go that they couldn't decide on the best way to end it so as they were sitting around listening to the playback John just reached over, grabbed a pair of scissors and randomly, physically cut the tape...
Lennon told an engineer where to cut it.@@papercup2517
Only seven years separate the music on this album from their first album, and their musical growth/progression is something amazing!
Insane. They got in their "10,000 hours by 1964, and then *really* applied themselves.
It’s absolutely bonkers to go from “Love Me Do” to this in such a relatively short time. Almost makes no sense. I cannot for the life of me find another band that has done that.
It still boggles my mind. They kicked the door in and everyone followed.
I heard someone say once, "they went from being NKOTB to being Radiohead in 6 years"
Basically, it went from a 50s pop band to a doom metal prog rock outfit
Just outstanding 👏
The bass is insane on this song.
It’s either him or Jack Bruce as best bassist of the 60 s for me
@@johngriffiths118 That's an extremely close race for me. Love listening to both.
My man😎😎
I envy you guys being able to hear these Beatles songs for the first time. This is the band that didn't just change music, they changed the world.
Indeed. The Beatles and Elvis changed the marketing focus, and Vietnam war the macroeconomy.
Helter Skelter, Happiness Is A Warm Gun.
It’s great to have somebody who knows the intricacies of music reacting to these classic songs. Love your channel, I click immediately when I see a new video
Me too. These cats quickly moved to the top of my list.
Absolutely!
Me too, these cats listen!
Agree, these guys are my favorite reaction channel.
Well said.
Can you imagine hearing this for the 1st time at the time it came out? No one had ever heard anything like this before ….. awesome
These guys were incredible! Their creativity is unmatched. Almost everything they did was a first. GOAT!
The 2nd best band of all time (whoever!) is light years behind!
Oh no, they didn't loop that ending, they played that entire piece with real instruments.
Billy Preston on the keyboards… All the Beatles acknowledged that he brought out something more in them and that they were on best behaviour when he was with them… Great stuff!!
This is the definition of HEAVY,It perfectly tells the story of someone who wants that Lady so much it's killing Him
John's ode to heroin
Didn't know that... thanks. The song makes more since now. @@patrickcampion7966
Or someone else. And I’m not referring to Yoko.
Abbey Road is so good and this is one of many masterpieces! The Beatles just got better and better until the end. Awesome reaction amigos, so glad you are enjoying this classic album.
The Beatles musically and creatively versatile asf.
The Beatles, defied all limits, defied all boundaries and defied every attempt to place them in a box musically. The guy that wrote Yesterday, wrote Helter Skelter and the guy that wrote If I fell wrote Yer Blues and lastly the guy that wrote here Comes the Sun wrote It's All Too Much. We were and still are lucky to have had The Beatles write the soundtrack of our lives.
It's hard to believe that this great composition came out more than 50 years ago. It seems like yesterday.
Pauls bass. ❤
Like Ringo once said, "John's got a lot of soul."
One of the greatest song run outs of all time. It was John’s idea to cut it suddenly.
The bossa nova style of music is typically associated with the feeling of longing. This song is the epitome of longing! "I want you so bad, it's driving me mad!", hammered again and again, then the slow, plodding outro which I've always imagined as the musical depiction of being marched forward to follow this woman without any ability to control the situation, until the abrupt end, which could mean her capture or his demise.
Yes! Always felt the end was the madness taking over.
For me, that brings The Doors to mind, obviously because of the "Light My Fire", but in general too this, to me, is Beatles' take on contemporary influences with The Doors
and bit of Hendrix as well, the guitar in unison with the vocal lines. "Sun King" would be another with themselves acknowledging the influence from "Albatros", the Fleetwood Mac piece.
There cannot be a more important band than the Beatles, ever again. It wasn't just about the music. It was about their unique combination of personalities, musical gifts and about the cultural moment they emerged in.
Elegant was the right word. Very nice. Wait 'til you hear side 2, it's going to rock your world!
Wait til you hear The White Album especially Happiness is a Warm Gun.
Please Please Please 🙏 play the Beatles medley all together…you have to!!!!! It starts with Because and goes to the end of the album. YOU HAVE TO PLAY THE MEDLEY ALL TOGETHER. Just think of it as one giant song, because it is…it’s the only way to get the effect. ❤
It is the only way to listen to it. Each time I hear the medley it’s like I’m hearing it again for the first time. The medley is arguably my favorite “song” from my favorite album from my favorite band.
It really DOES help to do this. It would subtract from the experience if they didn't do it like that.
Definitely their best album and one of the greatest albums in rock history. I always say it: They are the most important band of all time.
They even invented the idea of a band being important
Abbey Road is a masterpiece!
And then they split up.
Now try wrapping your head around the fact that their entire catalog of music happened in a little over 7 years…7 years!!
And the roof concert Jan 69, their final public performance, Paul was 26 and George was 25 yrs old. They were teenagers when they began that 7 yr musical odyssey. They recorded Abbey Road that spring and summer-then split.
This is heavy metal before there WAS heavy metal. Just a brilliant song and arrangement all the way around.
What else can you say? It’s just amazing. I’ve heard this album thousands of times. It never gets old.
So good! Any direction at all great song great dynamics. Also showcases how stylish a drummer Ringo is. Always the right accent at the right time
Ringo Starr & Charlie Watts are forever underrated, both are in my Top 10, they were on some of the greatest songs ever!
For the love of God. Listen to this album all the way through in your car! Or headphones. ❤
We do that after we do the reactions.
@@AirplayBeats good to know! Love your channel. ☮️
The opening guitar line of Here Comes the Sun following directly after this is one of the greatest rock album moments in history.
This is also one of their most unique artistic statements. They nail the atmosphere. The overheated, somewhat intimidating passion is tangible.
In the old days,when I Want You ended you had to get up and flip the record over and then came Here Comes the Sun. The CD doesn't stop but goes directly from one song to the next-changing the dynamics.
Indeed....building & building the white noise, the hypnotic closing melody slamming to a close is BRILLIANT. End of Side 1. John Lennon and Paul McCartney had the greatest & purest rock and roll voices in all of music history.
Buckle up, young men, for Side 2....!!! BEATLES FOREVER 😃
First time?
It gets even better around the 50th time you hear it.
Trust me. 😉😊
So true!
Ringo’s playing is so smooth with Paul’s bass
That little jazzy guitar solo
It’s just crazy how these guys came up with all this great music
The stars align in a big way over Liverpool. 🤘
Yep Ringo had an extremely light touch on the snare that he purposefully tuned very tight as his genius signature approach. He didn't kill his part but played with a subtlety and total control of the groove.
@CaptinQueue. Great, drummer observation. The smooth way he plays his ride, but leaves open space on his snare. It’s crazy after decades of playing the drums the more I actually listen to Ringo the more I get how great he was.
@@billc.5861 Other drummers of the time, such as John Bonham and Keith Moon, established wild power drumming as a rock drum norm and that drove those bands so well. But it was like Ringo was purposefully sparse and that supported the band's unique sound blend -- songs like Something and Get Back that show his light hand. IMHO the Beatles unsung instrumental heroes were Ringo and Paul McCartney, just brilliant.
@CaptianQueue. That’s basically correct. As a young teenager I started playing the drums in the early 70’s in the swing style then of course thanks to Zep, Bad Co, and a long list of others I became a caveman lol. Fast forward to recently and I met & ask drummer Jeff Campitelli if I could work with him when he’s available. Jeff said listen to Ringo , Steve Gadd , Billy Cobb Ringo was just Genius
This song, an amazing song just gets you ready for a second side that is unlike anything you have ever heard. in your life. Just get ready for an experience.
One of their ALL time best, so dark, so jazzy...John dialed this one in! John plays all the leads too...THIS is why they are THE BEST ever..
I can make an argument that this is the best Beatles song ever. This is truly an ensemble song. It is John's creation but they all play equally on it. John got his creative way on this song at the expense of Paul which doesn't happen often. They are on the top of their game as musicians. They play a style they normally don't play and nail it. This has a "jam" session quality to it which is so cool about the Beatles - they had issues with each other that broke the band up, but when it came to music they could all communicate together. All "5" Beatles are present (both 5th Beatles George Martin and Billy Preston). They are playing games with both words and sound. John, tired of playing with words like he did in Come Together instead uses the same ones over and over and yet each time they convey a unique feeling (Imagine Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy singing a cover to this song!!). They end the song in a way NOBODY ELSE does. As much as Paul hated the ending this was John's equivalent of the "massive sustained chord" at the end of A Day in the Life. They couldn't help but innovate. It was in their bones.
John's rock voice really comes out on "Hey Bulldog", a lesser known Beatles track.
In sudamericano his hit
Perfect fusion of jazz, soul, funk, blues and doom
... and dooom... 🙏
Pure genius and with only 15 words!
Killer track! Paul is always plays best on John's songs.
I appreciate you guys becoming more confident to interject during the song. You all know your stuff. And, this is a criminally underrated song. It literally invented stoner metal by accident. Excellent work as usual.
It is hard to believe that this song is over 50 years old! This is a new level for the time. All the contributions by every one makes this special
The first band to make white noise sound awesome.
Guys, that is John singing and playing lead guitar at once . Tip off is his blonde Epiphone pick-up tone, deep and thick. George is playing high treble notes through a Fender Telecaster, rosewood body . Rare.
The amazing Producer George Martin was often referred to as the 5th Beatle. Whatever you want to call him, he played a very important role in getting the sound just right. Elegant even.
Yes, George Martin was already the 5th Beatle, as he not only produced but added piano, keyboards, and orchestration to their songs from the very first album. Billy Preston would have been the "6th" Beatle, not the fifth. And he wasn't the first outsider to record with them - Eric Clapton, possibly others. Billy definitely added a lot to the one or two albums.
Take a look at how Rubber Soul was made, with respect to everything else that was going on, at that time.
John, and Paul could both be hard and both can kick butt with their singing.
How "Heavy" can you get? Love It!!
You guys really know music. I enjoyed this reaction so much thanks.
The greatest band of all time
I like your professional reactions. Without disturbing everything. Not only on this video.
I truly love your appreciation and understanding of the music.
The repetition on the 2nd half of Hey Jude is the bursting bright brilliance of the Beatles hippie vibe. The repetition of the 2nd half of THIS song is the deliberately dark depths of the Beatles heavy, hard vibe. They own the extreme endpoints, and everything in between.
When you do the Beatles Medley you have to listen to it all because they are all unfinished songs that run into each other, and what a beauty it is
Pure, hard, melodic power. Not in a hurry, just bringing it over and over. Beethoven-type shite. You guys know music, I can tell, and you guys are covering some choice tunes. Rock on.
What a perfect album and this song is outstanding, great choice for today !
The Greatest of the Greats
One of their most badass songs, no doubt!
If you want to continue your exploration of John’s “rock voice”, I suggest that you listen to his solo track, “Cold Turkey” released in 1969 and credited to the “Plastic Ono Band”.
The song is the first one in his career where John took sole songwriting credit and addresses his and Yoko’s recovery from their heroin addiction and features John on vocals and guitar, Eric Clapton on guitar, Ringo on drums, and longtime friend and collaborator Klaus Voorman on bass.
It’s been a favorite of mine since it came out.
Yes! Cold Turkey is just a killer track, and it rocks so dang hard!👍🏼🎸🎼😎
Thanks for the Cold Turkey reminder. I loved this track when it was released but had somehow forgotten it. UNBELIEVABLE!
The "rock voice" was there from the beginning. "Twist and Shout" sounded like a bomb going off way back in 1963. And the middle section of "This Boy" was an absolute revelation - one of the great vocal/harmony performances of the early Beatles.
As a life-long music enthusiast, I can say, definitively, that Abbey Road is my favorite album, of all time.
Says the same thing and you're not tired of it and want to hear it again. Great review!!
Nearly my favorite Beatles song ! Love love love it !!!!!!
Another Lennon great is “How Do You Sleep”.
The sum was greater than the parts... but the parts were pretty darn good. And when they added Billy Preston to the mix they got even greater.
You know when your stoned & this part at the end could go on forever & your just grooving to it you just don’t care lol
I wouldn’t know anything about that 😂😂😂
Dayum, so so glad I found your channel! Great video, and subscribed! Keep it rollin, from a 71yo lifelong Beatles fan and Cali boy living in Kentucky!
John laid bare his heart in the lyrics he wrote. He put his true feelings, good or bad, right out front.
Thank you so much for making me re-listen to this. Sooooo much better than in my memory.
This track is what would The Beatles sounded like if they added Billy Preston to the group. I do hope you guys reacted to John Lennon's first true solo album "Plastic Ono Band". That album has Ringo and Billy (with Klaus Voorman) in it.
You're the first person I've heard describe their 'hard rock' as elegant. A light bulb went off over my head - "Yeah. I never thought of it like that before". Thanks for the breakdown. You guys are great.
13:11 OMG!! ❤ OMG!! John Lennon 😭😭
I missed seeing the Beatles but did get to see McCartney w/Wings, RFK Stadium on July 4th, don't remember what year. I recall not being all that enthusiastic cuz I'm not a big Wings fan -- brothers, they did Beatles ALL NITE!! TEARS OF JOY -- this album, in particular!! After Lennon died I had given up hope seeing REAL Beatles but Paul brought it!! When he sang "She Came in Through the Bathroom Window" I lost it! -- puddles of joyous tears hit my feet!!!
"And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make" ❤
Abbey Road...A masterpiece and a huge chapter of my youth. Know it all by heart. I think listening to the entire album all the way through is a must!! :)
So lovely. Unresolved.
The,,1960s the only band who could keep up with the Beatles were the rolling stones in record sales they both own ed the decade 😮😮❤🎉
This was the final track they ever recorded together in the same studio they began in. Late Aug 1969.
Creating hard rock / metal before it existed. Nothing is as Majestic as the ending of this song!
Amazing song but wtf are you talking about 😂
You guys have the best reactions..you pick up on every little great note!✌️💞(Ringo's softly cooking back there) loved it!! Lol. Would you consider reacting to John Lennon's...Mind Games...official video?
We will check it out
if you like billy preston you will want to hear the loud version from the abbey road super deluxe edition it is from the studio sessions the police tell them to keep it down🎉
@@gertymoores Close. Glynn Johns tells them that there's been a noise complaint from one joysucker and they do one more loud version. John Lennon is disappointingly polite😂
Awesome. I was waiting for you guys to hear this one. One of my favorite Beatles tracks. As you said, this album is a masterpiece. You should do side two all the way through to get the full effect.
We did the first 2 songs on side 2 together and then the rest of it we are doing one whole video.
Great. Looking forward to seeing your reaction.@@AirplayBeats
The Beatles got better and better with each sucsessive album! Makes you wonder what they could have produced had they remained together for a few more albums! ☮☮
They inspired so many very well known bands, But their prime talent is their firstness,
Love your reactions to The Beatles.
Yes, John had "that" rock voice. Listen to side two in it's entirety without interruption. Enjoy.
If you haven't listened to it yet try "Helter Skelter" top tier hard rock by The Beatles.
one of the first hard rock songs
My tean years were through the 60s. The Beatles were always way ahead of other bands. With each album, a new sound
I had this album as a Christmas gift when it came out. As a young teenager with a broadening taste in music I enjoyed it a lot. It's only now, seeing you guys react, that I appreciate how brilliant it was.
The Beatles did so many different genres through their discography, but you’re right they had elegance with it. They could do their usual pop, or switch it up to a ballad, rock, or blues and they were going to put their spin on that genre and make you think they invented the genre
The Beatles. The Best.
