The timing is absolutely brilliant, at one point time signature mixes between 6/8 time and 7/4. After that on the last section Ringo’s in 4/4 time and then a couple bars in, the rhythm section plays 3/4 Time over top of Ringo’s 4/4. How hard that must’ve been for Ringo to stay in time while they’re playing that. That’s genius!
tears my head off. every time.
My favorite part. I think, its the trickiest Beatles song in terms of timing
@@individrus agreed
I’ve read this was one of the handful of songs he had any difficulty with the timing. Metronomes use Ringo to keep time…
Polyrhythmic counterpoint, mixed meters and a wicked groove that never waivers. One of the Beatles most sophisticated songs. And I haven't even mentioned the lyrics
5:37 McCartney imitating Lennon's vocal timbre. What a genius! was in all the details
Woah, of course!
hahaha wth? He isn't
Not even close and not really
Had to comment, been singing together for 10 years now, sure it came more natural than 'imitation' imo
Imitating? What?
I wish John actually appreciated the exceptional voice he had. He was on fire here. I also love his voice in Anna.
He did. Otherwise he wouldn’t sing. Greatest voice in rock
@@hw343434 He's referring to lennon once saying he hated his own voice.
Always fascinated by Ringo's drumming. What a musician he was in the 60's!
This song was a favorite of all four Beatles. Joh's voice is phenomenal.
Definitely a top 10 Beatles song of mine... such an abstracty weird song... breaking a lot from their early 4/4 Beat days.... Damn I love that Rick tone!
That organ! Are you kidding me? Wow!
Great song in so many ways including its lyrics: “Mother Superior jump the gun.” Lennon was very clever.
One of my favorite songs of all time. And one of Lennons best. He was absolutely brilliant
Two things really stand out for me here: George’s harmony in the background is almost impossible to detect but it’s one of those super nuanced and important parts that would throw the whole thing off if it wasn’t there…
And two: can we PLEASE talk about the INSANE time signature in the whole “when I hold you” bit??? Ringo is holding a 4/4 beat SUPER STEADY while the band is doing 3/4, to then just fall back I to place with all members doing a 4/4 again. That is absolute perfection!!!!
Macca didn’t sing any harmonies?
No one can do it like Ringo did, and no one will. I just love how Ringo has that same fill in slower songs. He’s the best and doesn’t need the praise.
I always liked the solo breakdown. The guitar sounds like machine gun fire, the bass like mortars being launched. Such a violent song, all about love
Ringo is a human metronome. Amazing!
Love Ringo’s drumming on this.
yep, clean and powerful!
Yes
YES! It has such a clean 'snap' to it--the strokes feel almost like whip-cracks at times. It's hypnotically phrased, and he leans into it just where the push will increase the overall tension of the song.
Definitely, it makes me think of the crack of a whip. Or how some girls can move their hips when they dance.
It's a sexy blues--something a lot of the British invasion rockers had a feel for.
And you're right--we love them for it. :)
I’m always puzzled when people think he wasn’t a good drummer. He’s not flashy, but he plays what the songs called for.
It’s Paul everyone not Ringo.
Oh my GOD!!!! That Hammond organ track @10:34 felt like a complete surprise--like you gave me the gift of a completely lost Beatles tune they might've written for a 60's tv show like the Addams Family or the Munsters... or maybe a low-budget horror flick.
This and the isolation of the laughing track for "And Your Bird Can Sing" are two audio files you own that I'm supremely jealous of :) But in the good way.
I'm finally catching up on your uploads--it feels like an early Christmas present! Thanks @DLD2 Music!!
no, thanks to you for seeing them :))))
Yeah its great john created that
Well said about TV shows ... if anything it has a fascinating resemblance with the title sequence theme of "the persuaders" (aired few years later)
@@MrUsermister Thanks for the tip! That wasn't a theme I knew but your comment made me look it up and John Barry composed it--I feel surprised I didn't know it already. You rock :)
@@strangenrare8663 You're welcome Ma'am :-)
The were and are the Greatest Band in all of History.....no one comes close ...they will never be Beat
That organ track! I've literally never heard that! Amazing!
John had a complex sense of rhythm and unique time signatures changes. This song is exhibit A: Time signature changing masterpiece, but you can also hear it in “All you need is Love”, “Good Morning”, “She Said She Said” and many more
Great call hw his timing is so professional, doubt he went in going, "we need a time signature change here", think he just followed the wherever each song took him, regardless of results, fearless imo
Love hearing Johns mouth bass in the backing vocal track ! I knew it was there. This video's audio proves it !
Yes! I always heard it the mouth bass, but when I came in here and read the word tuba I thought it was going to be that, but no, it turns out it was a voice!
5:50.......is mind blowing especially for 1968!
John's vocals are so powerful and electric on this song. Love it.
Oneof my favorite Lennon's loving this 👍
What a haunting organ intro-molds this song perfectly into what it is, like molten liquid gold forming itself into the structurally sound palace of John's thematic universe
That was solid-alloy prose you got there J.D. Clever!
Ringo Starr is the lead of this, top drummer, my best of all time
I love you
It's rare to find a true Ringo admirer, and it's always a huge pleasure :)
RINGO YOU WORKED YOUR ASS OFF ON THESE SONGS 👍
La línea de órgano me encanta, re progresiva, y la línea de piano muy Music Hall, típica de Paul.
John Lennon - vocals (doubled), electric guitar, Hammond organ
Paul McCartney - piano, bass, backing vocals
George Harrison - electric guitar, backing vocals
Ringo Starr - drums, tambourine
They were a clever bunch, weren’t they?
I agree but this started to create problems for them because people thought they had the answers to everything. Which is not true.
They were brilliant at music, not business or anything else. They lost money on their Apple Boutique. People just robbed them and walked out with things.
Business men they were not!
Their producer.
What an incredible song!!
Interesting to hear Lennon doesn't play the Dm6, just a normal 5th fret barred Dm but picking with F on second string being the highest note, with A on the sixth string being the lowest. Logic says it would be easier to just play the Dm like this X O O 2 3 1 but you can definitely hear the hand slide back down to the Am position, which means he picks different strings for that Dm to Am section. Fascinating (to me anyway ha!)
Not just to you ,haha,there’s lots of us out there.
I think it's because of the picking pattern. As on other tracks like Julia, this pattern has the thumb playing the lowest three strings (in an A D E D pattern) with fingers playing the top 3 strings. It only really works well for chords that can be played on all 6 strings, so for the Dm a bar chord at the 5th fret suits the picking pattern. Like you say, the Dm shape can slide down to Am with the bonus that the picking pattern (in terms of strings) doesn't change. For the Dm chord, I hear a B at the top so I think the shape is actually Dm6/A 557767 (probably fretting two strings at 7th fret with 3rd finger), similar to the Am6 shape in the intro.
@@Howard_Wright Yeah, I got it wrong, listening to it now I can hear the high B. I've just downloaded Take 19 and the Lennon's guitar picking is a lot clearer than this extracted one. So...I got the Dm/A wrong too, it's the same fingering as the Am (i.e. first notes: thumb A string 5th fret, 3rd finger high E string 7th fret.) Dm6/D. So it's 5 5 7 5 6 7, except when he moves his pinky from the high B to the D on the G string, which he does on the 4th beat before sliding down to Am. STOP THIS RECORD! STOP THIS RECORD! THIS TIME FOR SURE! Sorry, forget the above, had another listen. X O O 7 6 7. Same first notes, except thumb playing open D string. D'OH!!!!! The simplest way is usually the right way. I hate overcomplicating Beatle "how-to"s. The slide up and down is on the G string, not the A.
I was looking for Happiness Is A Warm Gun isolations, and then you did it! Life saver. Cheers
Escuchar las vocales traseras es algo increíble que casi no puedes escuchar en la canción original
No wonder this was Paul's favorite song on the White Album.
'Brilliant' is thrown around as we all know - way too much in the last 40+ years. But this is truly brilliant.
Not just Paul’s, it was George, Ringo and John’s favorite!!!
The reason why Paul, George and Ringo love this song, maybe because John as a great band leader included everybody’s contributions and encourage that.
Possibly but Paul stated it was the best song in the album. I think it was just the fact that's a great song mainly but yeah he did encourage him to play on it well Lennon did you're right...
Very nice! Love the harmonies. Thanks for posting!
Great isolation job, thank you!
Mi favorita de the beatles desde que la escuche, un temon
as always, Great Job each time my mind is transfixed
god i wish i had drums that sounded like that
Excellent work!
absolutely incredible!
Wonderful as usual.
Superb!!!
Beyond brilliant.
Se torna ainda mais incrivel ouvir cada pista separada
DLD2 - Thanks very much.
Sheer genius track.
great isolation of the drums
Ringo is so awesome. Perfect timing unlike most wannabes who overplay every song. Hey drummers out there, stop your worthless fills. You only impress 13 year olds while pissing off the rest of the band when you miss the beat. Ringo has the knack of listening to the entire band and not glory hogging.
Dios!! Que obra maestra!! Que placentero escucharlos
I'm sincerely amazed at the work you do! You deserve a lot more than what you currently have.❤
Agreed!!
its funny reading all these amateur beatle fan comments, this has been available for decades for serious beatle fans who collect their bootlegs. smh
@@americanpatriot7233 really!? What has motivated to tell us this?
@@juliangiulio3147 the people on here who are not true beatle fans, true beatle fans collect their bootlegs which is half their work
@@americanpatriot7233 “amateur” Beatles fans? As opposed to “professional” Beatles fans? Like you make a living being a Beatles fan? Get over yourself.
I’ve been a fan since I saw them on Ed Sullivan in 1964. I have a many bootlegs. Some of these isolated tracks are recent developments and weren’t on bootlegs.
amo questo brano !!!!
Would love to see some more george Harrisons music but great video! :)
I enjoyed that. Thank you very much. xx
Gotta love the white album!
thank you SO much!
First comment! Thanks for uploading this! I really love this song! Greetings from Chile :)
saludos desde Argentina
Ringo is a beast
Aunque dan créditos a George por el solo de guitarra ,suena a Lennon por lo agresivo de la guitarra fender
Essa música é pra provar o tanto que o Rindo é era foda , ele não se perdia !
All this stuff is a TREASURE !
I didn’t hear the tuba.
Also, check out Ably House’s video on their discussion of the fretless guitar for the solo. I’m definitely swayed.
The vocals!
Amazing!! Could you do Little Child?
09:37 Ladies and Gentlemen-- John Lennon
the bottles?
Oh wow--I have ALWAYS wondered what friggin harmony to sing at that chord @7:23/24 (if I'm remembering right from memory it's an f minor?), but I can hear now it's John in the background of the right channel, and he's singing, essentially fa sol, fa-sol-fa, fa..... which I guess means he's singing a 2nd on that iv? (it's been a minute since I studied theory, so correct me if/where I'm off) :) But my ear has always had such a hard time dissecting that chord in my head, and hearing John's voice clear as day, burst forth with just those two notes... the clouds of my musical confusion have been lifted.
Thank you once again, DLD2_Music! for a thoughtful, well-constructed Beatles deconstruction. :)
That Fm fascinated me, it is an unexpected chord that completely changes the rhombus of the song
Yeah the low one is what you said and the high one is la ti, la-ti-la, le…… so it lands on a minor third. An F and an Ab. It’s just the classic dramatic IV iv I thing drawn out a bit
I love you John
Sheer genius.
George ❤🤘🇮🇹
Wow
Finally THIS became watchable,videos hj did that impressed me only remains which is still a banned blank on utb or internet
actually the video was mine. I gave it to him because I didn't want to upload the whole white album
He helped me with the photos and instruments personnel previously
@@DLD2Music Thanks for what you have done.Actually I didn't notice that description ever🙏
03:07 George's Guitar Solo
George played the Fretless Guitar
@@beatlesfan2884 maybe (i've seen ably house video) but i can't find any proof
@@beatlesfan2884 no he didn’t.
So is John's Guitar Solo?
@@beatlesfan2884 No it's not the fretless guitar. Discussed this with Ably House some time ago and I think the consensus was that it wasn't. They conjectured that it was also used on Everybody's Got Something To Hide but that was conclusively proven not to be the case. The fretless was pretty much useless as a serious recording instrument and there's no record of The Beatles using it on any track. Anyway, the riff is perfectly playable on your normal common garden-variety electric guitar - not that it's easy to replicate, mind you.
I remember being on LSD back when this album came out and walking into my friends house and this song just came on later in the mid 70's I listened to it just on pot with headphones and it seemed to say hare krisna hare hare when it says Mother superior jumped the gun.. see if you can find it 6:20 we youse'd to think it was about sticking a needle in your arm ☠
6:24 that is totally Lennon doing the high harmony... I used to think it was Paulie
That tuba is actually John's bass vocal, by the way.
i mean during the solo
I Do Not quite understand: IS there a Tuba? I Could Not hear any. Please Tell me the time, at which Minute there is one...?
@@meikebohn8424 there's no tuba
@@meikebohn8424 at 3:07 you can kinda hear it
That’s the Bee’s Knees
Ok, on my second listening, I have a few questions:
1) The Hammond organ @10:34--it sounds like it's 'kind of' in stereo, but then there's a burst of what sounds like full/true stereo @11:07 (where my left channel REALLY kicks in) but then it fades strongly to the right @11:11 again. Can you say any more about the source of the bootleg or how it ended up mixed this way, or if there are other versions available?
It feels like listening to the sountrack for Rosemary's Baby, or maybe something Lurch would've played if he'd had a Hammond instead of a harpsichord. :) It's such a dark spin on a groovy 60s aesthetic.
2) at the very end of the organ track, does anybody else hear what clearly sounds like "a burst of Yoko" @11:15?
1) I think that in the bootleg there is that panning because there was like a 2nd organ above
2) it's just a badly cut fragment from the solo
@@DLD2Music Sorry, for being late.
But I must ask this. Are you sure this is actually the studio's Hammond?
They had their own Vox Continental to their proposal, it doesn't seem to be that for sure, but what about that old cinema organ that they used so often, from the Pepper LP until very late in their short career.
Late in short 😂🤣😂
I do have the idea it could be that one. Have forgotten the name.
Was it something like Lowery Organ?
George used Strat for rhythm and Les Paul for solo
I had no idea this song even had an organ.
Incredible! Where did you dig the organ up from? Amazing.
from a bootleg
I was gonna ask the same thing!
Do you know what the bootleg is from? (Like, the source or the date?) Just curious--you do such great research I just figure you know all the answers. :)
There’s no tuba. The guitar solo is Lemmon playing a fretless Bartell guitar. There’s no second bass part.
whats the low harmony singing at the “Happiness Is a Warm Gun, (Bang, bang shoot, shoot!)” part?
John
Foi back do Beatles, GREAT !
Is that organ on the final mix? I can’t say I’ve ever noticed it before
7:10 Paul's bass voice sounds like he's saying "very fine"
I think that is John
But sounds like he's saying "very fine"
“Having fun”?
I’m going crazy over trying to figure out what Fuzz pedal was used for the first solo at 2:07. And is he really just bending the notes to the higher frets to stay in key? I’m not a dude who misses much
The Rick or the Jazz?
I lean towards the Rick, owing to the pick attack sound.
Paul is the one playing drums not Ringo. Ringo had quit while recording this song.
Not a tuba. It’s the weird software making something sound like a tuba. That’s the other guitar line getting stuck in the mess
Whatever guitar George used, I'm guessing he ran through the Vox Conqueror with the distortion on full, or the Twin Reverb using the Tone Bender, or digging the Fuzz Tone out of storage.
I heard for this solo he played a rare fret less guitar, not sure which one.
I had a real ah-ha moment when I first played a vox tone bender (mk1 w/ germanium) and it sounded uncannily similar to fuzz in this solo. They were contracted w/ Vox from so I put 2 and 2 together. Their use of distortion was unique, especially in Revolution (single) and on Revolver, that guitar sound is from plugging DI into the mixer and leaving it in the red
Yeah I’m gonna go on the limb here and venture to guess it’s a Vox Tonebender but it’s got an old germanium transistor. So it’s probably paired with a newer pedal to cut down any radio interference. If Clapton was around he’d he’d probably have a good Dallas arbiter Fuzz Face. Then he would probably be with George’s wife for the next day.
Are we sure the solo is not John. Sounds more like John to me
11:15 tape edit
Is the overdriven guitar solo George or John? for example at 3:07 ....thank you
George
I think the "tuba" part is actually John's low backing vocals. I don't think there's an actual tuba in the song.
Hear at the solo
@@DLD2Music That’s not a tuba - that’s part of John’s vocal badly edited out singing “down.” He originally sang the “I need a fix, I’m going down” several times.
@@DLD2Music Oh yeah, I heard it! Thanks!
Who do we think sang that bass harmony in the end section?
John
It’s never a good thing when Mother Superior jumps the gun…
What was John singing before the vocals faded back in during the guitar solo
i think he say "down" or somthing like it
@@DLD2Music In the mix, the fader was brought up too early....catching his previous singing of "I need a fix cuz I'm going down, down to the bits that I left uptown, I need a fix cuz I'm going down"......
I think John originally sang the complete ' I need a fix " line twice but they decided to omit the first one in favor of the guitar solo. They faded the vocal pot up prematurely and you can hear John say " Down" as he finishes the line "...I need a fix cause I'm going down" . Well that's what it sounds like to me when I sing the line over the solo. When I get to the word "Down " it matches up with John's vocal.
Didn't see @brpbrpbrpbrp's post. Sorry for the redundancy.
Who in the hell left the gate open!?? Damn that guitar solo after , "a soaked impression of his wife which he aid an donated to the National Trust" that guitar is so nasty. I've heard this song a million times but damn isolated like this, it's just so much. Someone, anyone is that George or John? I'm leaning towards George.
George lesd Guitar, John Rhythm
@@DLD2Music Thanks. That guitar bit is just sooooo omg
#LennonLives
Is'nt it "Susan'stuba"?
5 tracks? How is it possible?
I think George used Lucy for the solo
Idk... maybe
