    "Come Together" is on the Beatles' 1969 album "Abbey Road". This is one of my favorite albums. All the songs are great on it such as "Something", "Here Comes The Sun", "Oh! Darling", "Because", "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" etc.

    In early July 1969 while driving in Scotland, John and Yoko were in a serious car accident. It forced John to miss several weeks of recording sessions for what became the Abbey Road album. Upon his return the last week of July, John brought the song Come Together to the studio. John was particularly rude to Paul. Telling Paul he didn't want Paul to sing harmony or play piano on the track. Paul, instead of making a scene, simply left the studio for the day. As the days passed Paul wrote the electric piano line for the solo while John watched over Paul's shoulder. Paul did end up singing the harmony on the song, when John wasn't present in the studio. Such was the tension between John and Paul by this time. The unofficial break up of the Beatles was only weeks away. Great reaction Mrs PP, I loved it. Merry Christmas,, RNB

      this is not true. Lennon never asked McCartney not to play ot sing on the song.
      The group taped eight takes of "Come Together", with take six marked "best". The line-up consisted of Lennon singing lead vocal, McCartney on bass, George Harrison on rhythm guitar and Ringo Starr on drums. Starr placed tea towels over his tom drums to further dampen their sound. Without needing to use his hands to play guitar, Lennon added handclaps each time he sang "Shoot me!" also adding tambourine over both the solo and coda. Taped on 4-track recording equipment, at the end of the session, take six was copied over to 8-track tape in Studio Two, allowing for both overdubbing and the easy manipulation of EQ
      Overdubbing for "Come Together" took place in the week following the recording of the basic track. On 22 July, Lennon sang a new lead vocal and again added handclaps, both being treated to a tape delay, with automatic double tracking added during the choruses. AT LENNON'S REQUEST, McCartney played a Fender Rhodes electric piano, with McCartney later recalling that Lennon "wanted a piano lick to be very swampy and smokey, and I played it that way and he liked that a lot". Harrison added a heavily distorted guitar during the refrains, while Starr added a maraca. Work on the track continued the next day, with more vocals added. On 25 July, McCartney contributed a harmony vocal sung below Lennon's part, and on 29 July, Lennon overdubbed a guitar during the song's middle climax. Work on the song finished the next day, with Harrison playing a lead guitar solo with a Gibson Les Paul during the song's coda.

      Geoff Emerick states in his book that Paul wrote the electric piano solo with John hovering over his shoulder. Pauls harmony vocal is sang on a isolated track. The track conscious Beatles seldom wasted any opportunities to fill up each track. Even when they switched to the 8 track machine during the White Album sessions. This is evidence that Paul was alone when he recorded his harmony. Possibly reflecting the tensions within the band were raised at that particular time. You both bring up good bits of information in your posts. Thanks for sharing.

He recorded the swirling organ chords and stabs whilst also doubling Georges iconic opening guitar phrases for the song 'Something'. Then closing his Beatles chapter playing the smoky B3 organ on Johns, I Want You (She's So Heavy). I hope this helps. Regards, RNB

    It’s so weird growing up in the 60’s and seeing “first time hearing” on the title of reaction videos. For a song like “Come Together”, it’s like hearing someone ask “What is a telephone” ? No knock against the host, there’s a first time for everything. It just knocks my socks off a bit.

  • @kbrewski1
    @kbrewski1 11 месяцев назад +15

    Nice reaction, you were spot on calling it funky. Its one of the Beatles coolest and funkiest tunes and I think it still sounds just as fresh today as it did back in 1969. That's amazing when you consider the song is 55 years old!
    "That street" is Abbey Road, the street their studio was on where they recorded, and that's why they named their last album Abbey Road.
    The keyboard sound you asked about was Paul playing an electric piano (overdubbed).
    The vocal that sounds like shoooo over the drum roll is Lennon singing "shoot me" over and over, which is tragically ironic for obvious reasons.
    I would suggest you listen to the "Abbey Road medley" on Side 2 of the album. It starts with "You Never Give Me Your Money" and continues to the very end. There are 8 small songs patched together and meant to be heard together. The last song is simply called The End, and is literally the last song the Beatles recorded as a group. It will blow your mind, its iconic, and everyone should hear it. When you hear the entire medley, you'll understand why it set the template for 70s guitar Rock and Roll. You will thank me! 😊

    I’ve always thought this has to be one of their more unique tunes. As the drum pattern at times deviates from a rock beat, bringing in those low rolls and the unusual “tss-tss-tss-tss” sounds. That’s John on lead vocals with Paul backing him. Meanwhile George as always handled guitar leads; my father said his style was very distinctive. The top music group of my parents’ generation, and I think you would enjoy diving deeper into their work.

    FM rock radio stations were still playing "Come Together" a decade after its release. It pairs well with "Riders on the Storm" by The Doors. They typically saved it for later in the night though, sometimes following it up with the medley from side two of Abbey Road -- "You Never Give Me Your Money", "Sun King", "Mean Mr. Mustard", "Polythene Pam", "She Came In Through the Bathroom Window", "Golden Slumbers", "Carry That Weight", "The End". Sixteen minutes with seamless transitions between songs. Listen to the whole thing at one sitting for full effect of the composition. Majestic. Bring tissues maybe dancing shoes. 😀

    What's cool about you saying you didn't want the song to end is that it opens "Abbey Road" -- their last recorded album. So this song really doesn't end -- it just leads you into their last great adventure.
    It is definitely a John song. I'd suggest following it with "Oh, Darling," a Paul song, also on side 1.
    George's renowned "Here Comes the Sun" opens side 2. I think you already reacted to that one, didn't you? 🤔

    That drum lick you are hearing, by the way " good ear".
    That is a double bass drum hit, two high hat licks and a reverse roll starting to the right on a
    floor tom rolling backwards. Ringo is left handed and the story is that he played this on a
    right handed drum kit and this genius sound was the result of it.

    John Lennon was sued over this song because it sounded too much like Chuck Berry's 1956 song, "You Can't Catch Me". He even used some of the lyrics from Chuck's original song. "Here come a flat-top / He was movin' up with me," changing it up only slightly to say, "Here come ol' flat-top / He come groovin' up slowly." When John played the song for the other Beatles for the first time, Paul McCartney immediately noticed the similarity to Chuck Berry's song and suggested they slow it down so it wouldn't sound so much like Berry's song. But that didn't fool Chuck Berry's publisher and a lawsuit was filed after it's release. John settled out of court and agreed to record 3 songs from the Publishers catalog as part of the settlement. That's the thing about the music business, The music is the fun part, but you gotta be careful. The music business is a nasty business. I had one musician I know tell me "Lawyers love the music business. Someone's always suing someone"

I pictured the three Beatles left standing over Paul's grave and singing this song and you can faintly hear Paul singing some of the words as backup singer. In this explanation the other three Beatles have resurrected Paul from the dead and now he is like the Phoenix rising out of the ashes into Abbey Road Studio their own Studio where they own the place. On the album that this song is on you can see the famous walk across Abbey Road. I picture this as the Beatles coming from the graveyard right into the studio to record this song Come Together.
