Love your reactions! If you ever want help with the research I could make a simple Google Sheet that breaks down the important info like the writer, singer, who performed on which instrument and little production factoids.
Good stuff yet again, a few things I would like to mention, starting with you saying Rubber Soul was dropping tomorrow. I'm guessing that since you already did Rubber Soul that you meant to say Revolver. It's cool man, I still make that mistake, lol.
Second, it might help to understand that way back in the day, releasing singles were more important to record labels than a full album. That might help dispel the confusion as to why some of these singles are better than some of the tracks on the albums. The priority back then was releasing singles, 45's as we know 'em.
I think you're going to like Revolver. It boasts not one, but two great "Harrisong's" on the album that are real bangers. Paul really shines on this one as well. In fact, after McCartney and Wings started getting heavy airplay in the 70's, songs like "Good Day Sunshine" started tracking again, despite being released almost a decade earlier.
Finally, this is a little treat once you've listened to Revolver, and you might even consider including this in your video. The alternate take of "And Your Bird Can Sing" for my money, is even more enjoyable than the cut off of Revolver. I'm pretty sure these boys were high as "Mr Kite" when they did this one, probably just returned from a smoke filled bathroom prior to this recording, and it's just a lot of fun to listen to.

@@mikepotter2484 Thanks for bringing up that key point re singles vs albums/LPs, which our host here (quite naturally) didn't seem to quite understand.
I remember albums in general just being an adjunct to singles, that you might buy if
(1) you really liked a single and wondered what else that artist could do, and to keep you entertained until their next all important single came out - and
(2) if you happened to have a lot of money to spend on such extraneous luxuries.
But most of the time, if you did splash out on an album it would quite likely be filled with a lot of C grade drivel and shmaltz, only enlivened by the single and its B side that you'd already purchased, plus maybe two or three passably enjoyable/ good quality songs. Great things were definitely not expected, let alone any kind of artistic tour de force that would be remembered and respected 50 years into the future.
It was almost entirely as a result of the increasing quality of the material the Beatles started putting out on their albums, that other bands started to compete, and the whole industry began to lift its game. Pop and rock music and al the genres that grew out of it became genuine modes for real musicianship and creativity, along with more and more technical innovation to provide a more refined listening experience..
You can find the liner notes online which explain everything.
Only a few actually hits there. Listen to the album 1 for all the hits. You'll still miss many good singles. BTY The Beatles recorded in mono for the first few records.
You know its a good day when darius uploads
u gone make me shed a thug tear brother 😢🙏🏾
@@lifeofdariius keep the uploads coming!!! She loves you is a banger but we love you more
Yezzir
It's true. These are probably most enjoyable and genuine reaction videos I've ever seen and I'm genuinely excited and looking forward to the Revolver and Houses Of The Holy reviews. The difference between yours and the majority of the "typical young (millenial/gen z) black kid who's grown up on mostly hip-hop reacting to 'Classic Rock'." is that most of them are manufactured just for the 'clicks' etc, with no real passion or insight. Yeah, they might enjoy it in the moment and the novelty of something different, but your videos are just genuine. You are really astute with your observations and your genuine and passionate 'in the moment' reactions remind me of when I first heard some of these records.
For the record, an older friend who had just bought 'The White Album' lent it to me and gave me a joint to go with it. On a night when I was home alone, I played the album and smoked the joint ( It was 1982 and I was 15) and my life was never the same again. It's wonderful to see a 24 year old hearing this stuff and being blown away. It helps me to keep on being inspired by music at the advanced age of 56.@@lifeofdariius
'This boy' is golden
indeed.
there is a video on youtube of George watching a clip of them performing "this boy" and laughing with joy.
@@morpher44and watching it with really sweet loving eyes. It looks like he is thinking "ahh, those were the days...."
life is happier with your beatles reacts
'Yes It Is' is such a hidden gem
THAT is EXACTLY what I was going to say, but you beat me to it.! Nice to know that someone else thinks it is a hidden gem, too. A LOT of people don't KNOW it all, because it was never on an album. I think that some fans didn't always buy all the singles like a lot of us did back then, as they came out, and were more interested in the albums. I loved "YES IT IS" from the first time I put the 45 rpm on my record player back then. Just LOVE those harmonies and the way George plays his guitar. I have seen a LOT of Beatles tribute bands over the years and of all the ones I have see, the ONLY band that ever played it, was "1964 the Tribute" It wasn't one of their usual songs on their set list. But once in awhile, they would perform it, and I was SO overjoyed that I happened to be at one of their concerts on a night that they did!
LOVE ❤...Yes it is' ...John's voice is simply beautiful a Diamond 🪲🪲🪲🪲🍏
I love how every time he hears something he loves, he makes a face and grunts like he just smelled spoiled milk.
excellent stank face
That stank face don’t lie 🔥🔥🔥
The Beatles cut their teeth as musicians in Hamburg, Germany, playing 8 hours per day, usually from 6pm- 2:00am. They had huge fans in Germany, so they sang those two songs in German to please those fans. From Germany, they went back to England and got their record deal in 1962. Then, they started touring all over Europe. It took them almost another two years to break in America, which happened in late 1963, right after the assassination of John F. Kennedy. I think America needed the infectious humor and cheek of The Beatles at that poignant moment of time to bring everything from black and white and gray back to color!
Agree! ... The Mighty Beatles 🪲🪲🪲🪲🍏 you had to live and feel Beatlemenia in 63' 64' 65' ..in mid- late 65 Beatles Changed they're sound in Help' and Rubber Soul' and as a young boy of 9 in 1964 I love, love the Boys 🪲🪲🪲🪲🍏❤💚👍🍏
I love everything Beatles 1964- 2024 ! Lol
Long Tall Sally is my personal favourite cover of the Beatles. The past masters liner notes state that the whole track was recorded in a single take - which given that vocal is truly stunning.
I Want to Hold Your Hand is what started Beatlemania in the US.
In the U.S. it was. Please Please Me was their first number in Great Britain. Check out the Bill Board w/o April 4, 1964. The Beatles had the top fives singles, along with several others rounding out the Top forty. This is a feat that could happen again, history does repeat its self. My opinion is that this feat will never be repeated. Beatles freak since 2-1964!
@@dhchbhrh82 This record is no longer valid. Drake leveled it in September 2021 and Taylor Swift took places 1-10 in November 2022. However, it's already the rule today, that artists get the entire album into the charts through streaming and downloading. 3 or more songs in the top 10 at the same time are no longer uncommon these days.
And She Loves You
@@dhchbhrh82That's history. Drake equalized that in September 2021, Taylor Swift took the entire TOP 10 in November 2022 and two weeks ago (May 2024) Swift surpassed herself with places 1 - 14.
I never leave it unmentioned, that today it is easier, to get several tracks into the charts at the same time with streaming and downloads. It's now almost normal for the leading artists, to place at least three of the songs in the TOP 10 when they releasing new albums.
Love your take on things. I'm a 53 year old Iowa farm boy who had his life changed by hearing these songs. Made me into a musician for 40+ years. Great to see some younger people digging it. Feel like we could light one and chill. There's still hope in the world.
Fun fact: when Paul showed his dad this song when they were working on it, his dad wanted it to be, “yes yes yes”, instead of the “yeah yeah yeah”.
This shows me where the younger generation were back then. They were beginning to break away from the older generation and made a revolutionary change to culture.
His father objected mainly because “yeah” was the Americanized version of “yes”. He probably thought that it sounded too crude. 😂
I wonder if the band "Yeah Yeah Yeah" (heads will roll)" got the same sh*t.
@@morpher44Someone clearly got through to Yes
@@JC20XX Don't surround yourself with yourself
Move on back two squares
My grandfather was from England, probably 10 years older than The Beatles, and apparently he had the same sentiment. "Should be Yes Yes Yes" 😂
They did I Want to Hold Your Hand in German because the Germans gave the Beatles their start in being famous.
Between 1960 and 1962 the Beatles played at the Indra Club in Hamburg for a total of 172 hours on stage. They really honed their sound playing 5 hour gigs night after night there.
@@gsparkman That number only reflects the hours they played during their late 1960 gigs at the Indra (48 gigs). The total number is way higher: they played about 270 nights in Hamburg, so probably well over 1,000 hours on stage in Hamburg. Before Beatlemania, it's estimated they'd already played 1,200 gigs.
There’s something so pure in the joy of watching a new Beatles fan emerge track by track 😊 Keep posting Darius, you’re reminding us all of the first times we heard these beauties!! ❤
I’m Down is one my favorite early Beatles’ songs. Very underrated, IMO.
Sorry, "I Feel Fine" and "She's a Woman" was from the Beatles For Sale era! :)
I love how quickly you’ve gone from ‘yeah, I quite like the Beatles’ to someone who trawls the internet to make sure he’s pairing singles to b-sides correctly. It’s brilliant to be on this journey with you!
The U.S. releases of Beatles catalog was a year behind. We didn't find out about them until early 1964, so they released the "With the Beatles" album as "Meet the Beatles" and they added "Hold Your Hand", "Saw Her Standing There" and "This Boy" and removed most of the cover tunes, to be released later. Our "Meet the Beatles" album was a TON OF BRICKS to the side of the head! it was so awesome!! MTB was my first introduction to the Lads, back in the late 60's (listening to my older siblings albums), and it is a part of my DNA by now.
Lol. I still get VERY confused by the difference between the British and American versions.
I'm so glad that you loved She Loves You! This was the first time The Beatles actively disagreed with producer George Martin and told him "don't worry the fans will love it" in reply to some criticisms from him. Martin didn't like Love Me Do (except for the harmonica), made them rewrite Please Please Me (correctly) and told them to write a sequel to Please Please Me, hence all the harmonica on From Me To You. The Beatles called songs they were forced to write by the record company "work songs" and From Me To You was arguably the first. She Loves You was the first hit single they picked as the single. You mentioned with Maxwell's leaden Hammer (John hated it and avoided being in the studio) that they might have been asked to produce certain songs and that is true. The amazing thing is that many of them were still wonderful songs. For example the original title of HELP! was Eight Arms to Hold You but when they changed the title to HELP! Lennon went home after a days filming and came back the next morning with HELP! That's just ridiculous!! Love your really thoughtful reactions to the Beatles catalogue Darius... ;)
So glad that you think/thought She Loves You is peak media, I thought I was the only one. Mad fucking respect man!
I was 10 in December of 1963. I Want to Hold Your Hand just hit the airwaves and it was like a light switch had been turned on. Here in the US, no one knew the Beatles existed until then. Soon after, came She Loves You and a fast flurry of other new Beatles songs. We couldn't get enough. Some of the songs on this album were 100% sensational... then and now. Some were more an early introduction to their unique sound and were great at the time but don't hold up quite as well now. Sidenote: The Beatles honed their skills playing clubs in Hamburg, Germany from 1960-62. It wasn't until 1963 when they became a sensation. Having had a following in Germany, they recorded their two biggest hits in German for their earliest of fans there.
"I Feel Fine" was a really big deal when it came out, because it was so different than anything else they'd put out to that point, and no other bands sounded like that either.
It was also the first recorded song which includes guitar feedback. That was a radical sound to the ears of '60s listeners.
You can absolutely hear a new and brilliant crispness to the sound, as the engineers were exploring novel ways to record in the studio.
The Beatles dropping that single was a real turning point!
and "I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND" was even MORE of a "Big Deal" when it came out, because it TRULY WAS "SO DIFFERENT THAN ANYTHING ELSE" that we had been listening to on the radio in 1963. My clock radio came on early morning Dec. 26, 1963 (the day it was released in the U.S.) and I WOKE UP to "I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND." Now, I am NOT one that immediately jumps out of bed upon awakening, especially when I didn't have to go to school ( I was 16 then) as it was Christmas vacation. I would usually turn off my clock radio and turn over and snooze some more. But when I heard THAT song, I SAT STRAIGHT UP immediately, as if I had a rope around my chest and someone at the foot of my bed YANKED it hard to MAKE me sit up! I LOOKED at my clock radio and actually said OUT LOUD to no one in particular, "WHAT and WHO is THAT" I felt like I had been hit by a bolt of lightening! I just couldn't believe it, I just KNEW that I LOVED it and wanted to hear it AGAIN!! I missed the first 30 seconds or so.
I had the radio on all day, so I could hear it complete and find out WHO it WAS. I just knew it was NOT by ANYONE that I had listened to in the last few years. So Yeah, THAT was the song that started "BEATLEMANIA" in the U.S. Funny, because of ALL the hundreds of times I have listened to it in the last 60 years, I STILL get that SAME feeling that I had that Dec. morning when it first "invaded" my ears. Special song for sure. By the way, I LOVE "I FEEL FINE" too.
@@patticrichton1135 It's interesting that 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' was the big Beatles song in the US. Here in the UK, it's always been 'She Loves You'.
@@NGT-eb2oy It seems like I remember She Loves You being out around the same time as I Want to Hold Your Hand, but I could be dreaming....
@@SK-lk3iu 'She Loves You' was released in August 1963, and 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' was released three months later, in November.
Yay! You're back! :D
(Still waiting for your "Help!" movie reaction)
Just FYI Paul sings Love Me Do and he co-leads on I want to Hold Your Hand and She Loves You. Help was the first album The Beatles wrote and recorded high. It did make a difference. A bunch of the old rockers are covers: Long Tall Sally, Bad Boy, Matchbox, Slow Down. The German songs were just a curiosity they tried once and figured they would put them on this collection.
Yeah but you hardly hear Paul on 'I Want To Hold Your Hand'. He's on high harmony. John is clearly the lead vocal. Darius picked up on that.
'She Loves You' is more of a duet - and George joining in too - but John's dominant. His voice was that powerful then he would drown out the others.
'Love Me Do' is a duet too with Paul soloing in places because John had to play the harmonica.
This Boy is one of the greatest Beatles songs ever!!!!!!!!
The harmonies are sublime!❤
One of the best bridges ever
And one of the most noticable improvements in the remixed red album.
Watch “I’m down” live at Shea Stadium 1965.
Yes it is one of my personal favs
What's great about Past Masters is that they include all releases not on the original (UK) albums in two CDs so you get all the single and EP tracks that don't appear elsewhere without having to buy multiple rarities albums. That's what makes them unique
Wooo so happy you also loved Yes it Is!! I’ve always connected to that one deeply and always find myself returning to it…its building up in the chorus to the crescendo is so powerful
Holy fuck I can't wait for Vol. 2. Vol. 2 has some BANGERS.
Sheeeit, damn skippy, lol! "Paperback Writer," "Day Tripper," Hey Jude," Across the universe" etc etc etc. Dariius is gonna be having to clear his damn throat just from grunting and growling appreciatively so often, haha!
I always pause what im doing to see your reactions to the beatles.
There are some really underrated singles from this time period...
cant wait to see volume 2
Glad to see you back!
"Yes It Is" is such an underrated brilliant song but John, in his negative times post-Beatles breakup, later tried to say it was a disastrous attempt to re-write "This Boy." Amazing
she loves you was recorded live right after they came to the studio running from their fans and all engineers stopped to help keeping them away. they were so excited for the girls screaming and chasing them that we can hear it!
As to the sound of She Loves You, the reason was because back then, stereo mixing was pretty much just a novelty, so they just panned the vocals to one stereo channel and all of the instruments on the other! For a less "shitty" sound, try listening to it (or indeed the ENTIRE Beatles catalog until Abbey Road) in mono, or listen to the new remix on the 2023 edition of the Red Album (it is... Chef's kiss!)!
Wasting your time man, he won’t listen.
Darius, I had to comment. I was 8 years young when The Beatles appeared on Ed Sullivan and it changed my life...kicked me in a young girl's butt and I was never the same. I love all genres of music and listen to "all" of it. To discover someone of your age not only in a discovery phase of their music is a thrill for me. Your commentary and perceptions are well.....let an old lady say it, "REFRESHING." Keep it up Darius. I cannot wait for the next journey you take us on.
You are definitely one of my absolute fave reactors today-especially your great Beatle reviews-you are spot on with your reactions-very smart and honest looks at my favourite group! Thanks so much-keep it up!!
“Naaaahh, you the big dog Ringo, don’t ever call yo’self the little dog, naaah”. 🤣 🤣 I love it ! And it was the expression on your face while you were saying that. Priceless. Great video, again, Darius. Thanks. 👍
Bad Boy is a cover but it is brilliant, the playing is incredibly tight and it’s one of the greatest vocal performances by John.
She Loves You is a celebration.
very sophisticated lyrics
I see Darius comes thru with an upload, my day is made!
So, The Beatles didn’t want to add the singles on their albums because a lot of artists at the time were known to release an album with the single, and just fill the rest with filler to make an album. The Beatles wanted the Singles and the Albums to both stand alone on their own.
“Sie Liebt Dich kinda slaps” 😂
I think so too, I wish he had listened to both of them in their entirety. That was disappointing, that he didn't. Ever watch the movie "JO JO RABBIT"? They play "Sie Liebt Dich" near the beginning of the film! It takes place in Hitler's Germany during WW II
YEEEEAAAY!!! You re back!!!! I'm so happy! 😄😄😄😄😄😄
This Boy finally found international recognition! It is now on the 1962-1966 "Red" album.
Yes it is and this boy❤❤john's voice is magic!
Ayy dropped this at the right time 🍃🍃🍃
last two songs are so underrated. I appreciate you'll loving them
Ringo did the drums on the single version of "Love me do"
With the exception of Love Me Do the singles were not supposed to be on albums because they didn’t want to charge fans twice for the same song. So they decided that singles would be independent of the albums.
Long Tall Sally, Slow Down, Matchbox and Bad Boy are covers.
The Beatles spent 2 years in Hamburg, Germany honing their craft in clubs playing up to 8 hour shows. Ringo was in another band and eventually sat in when Pete didn’t show and they decided he was the one… their time in Hamburg was the inspiration fir the German versions of She Loves You and I Wanna Hold Your Hand. They are both throwaways…
Check out Little Richard's "Long Tall Sally" for the original. Paul learned how to do this scream-woo from Little Richard. GOAT.
He ought to check out some of his other stuff like “Rip It Up”, “Good Golly Miss Molly”, and “Tutti Frutti” as well.
Not to mention some of their other influences like Chuck Berry and Carl Perkins.
@@MsAppassionata and Buddy Holly, Bob Dylan, etc.
Thanks, this is great! You can never go wrong with the Beatles, as you have found. They were always trying new things & did it all so well. Thanks so much for doing this, I love them all!
Was waiting for Yes it is on this one 🙏 such a great song
I feel fine... My favorite song ever
Just found your channel and am hooked! I’m loving your breakdowns/analysis and deep dives, and I always loving hearing new reflections and thoughts on the best band of all time. Keep kicking ass! 😃♥️
I don’t usually cry at all but the first time I heard yes it is I was so close to tears for some reason
I watch every reaction bro you’re killing it
Cannot wait for you to listen to revolver oh lord 🍃🍃
You think Paul is screamin crazy in "I'm Down," just wait to hear his batshit howling at the end of "Hey Jude," which is comin up on PM 2! Love the react, dude, can't wait for yer next one(s)!
I’ve been waiting all week for this vid to drop… IM SO EXCITED TO WATCH THIS VIDEO
I love This Boy
Not gonna lie, your love to Yes It Is made me real happy, it’s been my favorite Beatles track in the last couple of months (cause it changes all the time). There’s something so beautifully haunting about the sound and lyrics of it that makes it just great.
Long Tall Sally and Matchbox and such were from the Long Tall Sally EP, that's why they weren't on the singles list. Also the Beatles started their touring days in Germany, so I Wanna Hold Your Hand and She Loves you were huge there and they rerecorded them in German
Past Masters Volume 2 is a superior album in my opinion. Each song is a hit. Nice review of Volume 1
18:40 "re: beatles in German". They have loads of fans in Germany too and essentially got their start in Hamburg. They hung around with so called exies (existentialists), who wore black, were into Nietzsche. One of them, Klaus Voormann, did art for some Beatles Albums and shows up later in John's life to play Bass.
I LOVE BAD BOY. Everything about it ❤
love the vids Darius keep them coming. cant wait for you to react to all the other song the Beatles did
Really love this channel bro, Big respect for doing things right. Much love from the UK ✌🤙
Just remember, the sound quality was never meant for headphones. You could probably record something on your phone microphone that sounds better than the equipment they had back then.
Love me Do Single Version is the first recording of Ringo after joining The Beatles. On the album version he plays maracas
Tambourine
You might be interested to know that Paul and The Beatles recorded "I've Just Seen A Face", "Yesterday", and "I'm Down" ALL ON THE SAME DAY - 14 June 1965. This may be the best day's work ever accomplished by a recording artist.
The singles were like adverts for their music. They are what got played on the radio, to start with at any rat, later we were hearing album tracks as well. They didn't put the singles on their albums, because they didn't want the public to have to pay for them twice.
I'll Get You has always been my favorite early-Beatles song!! Good old rock-n-roll, Lennon/McCartney style!! How can anyone not love it? 😍
can wait for " past master vol 2 "
i feel fine is the first beatle song i listen to as a teenager in the early 2000s just for myself and it made me fall in love with the beatles music
You are a great, intelligent and hilarious reactor. I am enjoying your FAB reactions very much. xx
Remember that the Beatles really cut their teeth performing endlessly in Hamburg, Germany, before they were famous. They learned how to be a tight band there. There was already a decent fan base for them locally around Hamburg, and obviously the Beatles themselves had fond memories of the place, so it was natural to cut German language versions of those two big hits in appreciation (and of course knowing they'll sell there pretty easily!).
She Loves You and I Want to Hold Your Hand were written and sung by both Paul and John. Paul could so perfectly imitate and blend his vocals with John that it sounded like one voice until Paul went into the high harmonies. This happened on quite a few of their early songs such as Eight Days a Week.
Sorry if all he's doing is imitating John to save John having to double-track his voice, then it's still a John song.
Yes I've heard Paul talk about this.
It's pretty clear the producer and manager, that's Martin and Epstein, went with John as the hit voice in the early days. It's all over both sides of these singles as Darius is picking up on. That was after John delivered for them with 'Please, Please Me' their first number one.
@@gettinhungrig8806 Paul and John writing a song together and both singing the complete song together with Paul and John blending their voices in some parts and harmonizing in other parts is a John and Paul song. Those are the facts.
John imitated Dylan's voice on many songs, does that make them Dylan songs?
“Them chords is nasty” - Absolutely loving your channel 💯
Please consider doing the Beach Boys discography at some point, I think you’ll be blown away!
They recorded 'Long Tall Sally' in one single take. And yes, it was a cover of Little Richards version.
I’m a big fan of From Me To You a forgotten single. I convinced a cruise trivia person to use it in her Beatles trivia bc she had a habit of saying this phrase. She didn’t know the song until I played it for her.
I love all these!
Not any reactors I watch hv done YES IT IS! Superb harmonies!!
Long Tall Sally is an old Little Richard song. They met Richard and he taught Paul that shout!
Paul was already doing that shout. Yes he learned it from Little Richard -- from listening to his records, but Richard didn't actually "teach" it to him. It's a "claiming" story that Richard tells to let the world know that he approves of Paul's appropriation of his style. He would accuse other artists of stealing from him, but by saying that he taught it to Paul he is "claiming" Paul as his own legacy. Even when he does that silly little "poofing" version of the story, which sounds like he's calling Paul an incompetent slow study, it is really endearing, because this detail implies that he felt Paul was worth investing time and effort in. Never happened, but it's still a "true" story. I love the look of pure glee on Paul's face in that photo when the Beatles met Little Richard for the first time!
You glossed over the AMAZING bridge in "I'll Get You"! Go back and listen to it from "Well, there's going to be a time..." sooooo sweet
8 out of 10 classic "rock n roll" style songs from the Beatles are covers, the one that it isn't a cover, it's "I'm down" and as expected, it is an original Beatles song, no wonder why it's the best.
You’re doing real good on this channel. Keep it up man.
I love that you keep it real.
Love your reactions...makes me smile!! ❤😊
i havent even watched this yet and i know its a banger
They released an EP, with Long Tall Sally, I Call Your Name, Matchbox and Slow Down on it btw
You should absolutely react to Close to the Edge by Yes, incredible prog rock album
Start him wit The Yes Album
I also loved the "missing tracks" Leave My Kitten Alone & the Ringo lead If You Got Trouble
Darius, my dude. Recently found your channel through your Beatles reactions. I'm a massive Beatles fan, and I love seeing people enjoying their deep cuts, as well as the big hits. Personally though, I really love Komm Gib Mir Deine Hand. To each their own, man, but I really love that one. It actually made me want to learn German haha. Anyway, love the content, keep doing your thing, man.
Love your reactions!!
I remember discovering the BeaTles
A lot of fun
The album version of Love Me Do slaps bc Ringo is slappin the fuck outta the TAMBOURINE. That's what's missing from the single, and why the drums sound more distant.
That's all Ringo played on the album version of Love Me Do, was the tambourine. Andy White was playing the drums.
Part 2 will blow your head off! Seeing the escalation of their talent/LSD journey.
Another great video! Love what you do, keep it up.
Keep your ears out for Ringo's drumming on the second past maters - especially on Rain
So glad you were nice to Ringo this time!
"This Boy," which I also like, is from the movie and album "A Hard Day's Night."
Yes, but "THIS BOY" in their movie is an instrumental version (arranged by their producer George Martin) played over the time that Ringo goes "parading" at the urging of Paul's "grandfather" He won't see them performing it.
@@patticrichton1135 It's a great pity that more movie reactors haven't watched AHDN, although I guess the copyright issues may be difficult.
Darius I'm so glad you young and a big Beatles fan I enjoy your reactions, you discover for yourself a band that started in 1957..and became what theyare today in 2024 still mighty and going strong 🪲🪲🪲🪲🔥 🍏💚💜💛🔥
Darius Long Tall Sally, I Call Your Name, Slow Down and Matchbox are from an EP they made between Hard Days Night and For Sale. Those are all covers except I Call Your Name.
Then the songs in german were intended specially for the german market, an experience that they never repeated fortunatelly.
I Feel Fine/She's a Woman are Beatles For Sale.
Yes It is is Help and you can hear the same volume pedal George used on I Need You. As I'm Down is help too.
These last songs are the beginning of when John said they started to become the "clever Beatles".
