- I could see why this was recommended I just hate that the album was short but I guess it makes you appreciate it even more as well. Hope you guys enjoy the video and you know I hate cutting and chopping up these amazing songs but that's how it is. Thanks for Watching like and subscribe if you enjoyed!! #TheBeatles
Revolver was where the band pushed through to a new level.
It’s when they went from being a boy band to shamans.
Great album! I think they began "evolving" starting with the mini Revolver album Rubber Soul. They went from 0 to 100 in a VERY short period of time.
White album is my favorite.
✌❤🎶😁
@@jackiesueann3476 The leap they made from Help to Revolver was incredible. But the jump to Revolver was an olympic feat. Think about it, they went from Day Tripper/We Can Work It Out to Strawberry Fields forever in just over 1 year's time. They ended the Summer American Tour in August of 65, took a couple of weeks off, went into the studio, and Rubber Soul came out in December 1965. They did an 18 show British tour that December where Paul played Yesterday on keyboards in those shows, apparently. They used the same keys for performances of We Can Work It Out on that tour. They went into EMI Studios Abbey Road on April 6, 1966 for the first session of the Revolver recordings and started work on Tomorrow Never Knows. The band interrupted recording to play the NME Poll Winners Concert on May 1, 1966. They finished work on Revolver on June 22, 1966. The Beatles kicked off their 1966 tour in Munich, Germany on June 24, 1966. They went to Japan followed by the infamous show in the Philippines, the "Bigger than Jesus" swing through the U.S. and closed out the band's work as live touring performers on August August 29, 1966 at Candlestick Park in San Francisco. Following the tour, John flew to Spain to film How I Won the War. Paul went to Africa on Safari. George went to India to learn sitar from Ravi Shankar. Ringo stayed home to be with his new son and family. The band began recording Strawberry Fields Forever on November 24, 1966. ruclips.net/video/kQAZUHEreQU/видео.html
@@ryban1001 German tour:
Munich, Cologne, Hamburg
Two concerts each.
NME Poll winners: 1966
May 1 2021 hasn't arrived yet.
Just saying :'-D
@@ralphcordon5688 They were ahead of their time!
I get what you’re saying about the sound of this album, the Beatles were so prolific, that they could make Revolver in 1966, next year, Sgt Pepper in 1967, next year, the White Album in 1968, and Abbey Road in 1969. And then they broke up. It’s insane how much greatness they made in such a short time.
....and we still wanted more Oliver..
Six years. The Beatles' entire catalog was released in the span of six years. This will ALWAYS blow my mind.
Magical mystery tour, Yellow submarine and Let it be were also recorded between Revolver and Abbey road
@@hazrinsmksi9835 of course, that too
@@Isleofskye that’s why their solo careers are so interesting, it’s the closest we’ll ever get to what they would have been like next
"She said she said" has one of my favorite Ringo's drum work ever. Just genius.
I agree! I also think it's one of their best songs, period. (and Paul doesn't play on it! :P )
My favorite example of his unique pocket
Tomorrow Never Knows must be the most influential song ever recorded.
Really was the end of just the beginning of the psychedelic music era of the 60s. This was in 1966. In 1967, the Beatles along with many other bands created the most influential music year in over a century.
Doors, Bowie, Hendrix, Rolling Stones, velvet underground, moody blues, way to many great albums and bands to name
the future played backwards
Personally i feel Like it trancends music
@@futurereflections4097 Artistic creativity is sometimes almost magical, and sometimes it happens as a result of everything being in the right place at the right time. With the Beatles, their innate talent and energy, being unafraid to experiment, not worrying about stuff maybe not being commercial, and encouraged and orchestrated by their producer, George Martin, at Abbey Road studios, who was also a brilliant musician - there was an explosion of musical originality.
@@frglee Their experimentation was such a catalyst. The Beatles weren’t the only band doing it- but by doing it they opened doors in the music industry like never seen before.
Even the Beatles themselves were guilty of being a bit traditional and rigid- not that it didn’t sound good. They started off with very good normal music. But when they went psychedelic there was no turning back.
And it just opened the doors.
Dr Robert was written about Lennon’s dentist. The dentist slipped acid into his tea and John had his first acid trip.
The exact identity of the real life Dr. Robert is still up for discussion.. In 1967 Paul McCartney said it was inspired by a doctor in New York. The doctor in question was named Dr. Robert Freymann, who was infamous for giving his celebrity clients shots of speed that he said were B-12 vitamins. John himself has muddied the waters by once claiming he was Dr. Robert.
An article I read said that the London Dentist friend of the Beatles who slipped LSD into the coffee of John, George and their wives was John Riley. The article can be found at this link. beaconfilms2011.blogspot.com/2012/04/the-beatles-and-wicked-dentist.html
@@ArniePorter Yes I know about the story about the dentist and the LSD, but as I wrote the true real life identity is not known. There are other names that are also out there, including Bob Dylan, Robert Fraser and the doctor I mentioned Robert Freymann. www.thebeatlessongbysong.com/DrRobert.html
Not sure if the link will work but if you Google identify of Beatles Dr. Robert you will get many articles about the subject.
Riley dosed the Lennons and Harrisons in March of ‘65, during the production of Help! and John had a tendency to write and record about things that affected him in the moment, so I have serious doubts that Dr. Robert, recorded a full year and two albums later, was about Riley - it’s much more likely that, as KnockKnock said, Dr. Robert was much more likely inspired by Dr. Robert Freymann, the New York doctor who famously gave people Vitamin B-12/amphetamine shots (as seen on an episode of Mad Men) or possibly Robert Fraser, the London art gallery owner who was friends with the Beatles and Stones and a “reliable source of pot and coke”.
George Harrison spoke of it in detail on The Dick Cavett (sp?) Show! Dick’s show is a treasure trove of John Lennon’s intelligence, wit and passion! RIP😢🌹Love your energy! 😎☮️
This album was a transition album. A transitional masterpiece.
When will you be listening to "Rubber Soul," which was the real REVOLUTION.
If I ever get married, "Here There and Everywhere" will be my opening dance at the reception.
It was the first dance at my first wedding. We got divorced. Take what you will from that, lol
Like in Friends
Me too though at 67 in May I am beginning to fear it won't happen :)
@@Isleofskye LOL I was 67 last December...
The Golden Generation Percy,My Friend:)
It’s their best album, hands down. In 1966, these songs, sounds and themes were Totally original. A complete masterpiece.
An absolute master piece a triumph of monumental musical feats... Beatles beyond very Hypnotizing.. Addictive ...now its internet Beatlemania 2022 ! Unbelievable!!
"She Said, She Said" is one of my favorite Beatles song. Lennon had a real gift for introspective songwriting.
Frank Ocean said the Beatles almost single handedly got him out of writers block when writing Blonde. Also, he sings a line from Here, There and Everywhere on White Ferrari
Always nice to meet a fellow Jonathan and thanks for this Frank is one of my favorite artist of this generation and like other artist like childish Gambino now that I listen to the Beatles I’m finding little hints and references from the Beatles in some of their songs. These guys impacted so much different genres of artist. Glooks 🙏🏾 for the info
@@fiendjony778 No doubt bro, they influenced and continue to inspire so many other greats. Listening to these albums multiple times will send you down a rabbit hole. You'll get lost and notice different things each time you listen to them
This is the best album the Beatles ever made, in my opinion. They recorded the entire thing on four tracks, so basically they had to erase something to put something on. It seems unbelievable today. Backwards tape loops, spinning mikes, miking the drums close, automatic double track vocals,... They were all invented for this album. Oh, and by the way the music was great and the band was tight.
Abbey Road
Inform yourself: READ George Martin's "All You Need is Ears". He'll explain, among other things, how OVERDUBBING was done.
Help and Rubber Soul are better imo
I wore the same expression on my face when hearing Tomorrow Never Knows the first time. It's almost as if I couldn't wrap my head around the genius of it.
Tomorrow never knows is a terrible song
@@antonioiniguez1615 usually only old ladies or middle aged women say that
@@antonioiniguez1615 not terrible, but not great
@@barkknight8389 it's the only song I've ever listened to that made me feel physically sick
Such a great job. It's really encouraging to know that there is youth out there that has some depth. You'll do very well - just keep your path straight.
After all these years, I didn't realize you were in the album cover.
I love that you listen to everything straight through for the first time - and when you go back to review - you remember details and most of the melodies from all of them! That’s a gift. This album is a beast. Here, There and Everywhere is one of my favorite songs of all time.
Every song has a different vibe. Yep. Not only for this album, but for almost their entire body of work. Nice job reacting - everyone should listen as intently as you do.
Paul McCartney did the major guitar work on TAXMAN, although it was written and sung by George
As someone your age man, I’m glad we were able to find and enjoy the musicals geniuses of the 20th century
Lennon and mccartney hadn’t wrote any songs for the revolver album until one week before they went into the studio.
Creativity beyond words
The Beatles are all over the map in terms of melody. They really were geniuses when it came to melody.
You should try listening to the Beatles albums from first to last. It’s really a great way to experience and appreciate how their sound evolved.
That’s the first thing I did when I got into them!
She Said She Said is the perfect pop rock song!!
Based on a Hollywood party where Peter Fonda told a tripping John Lennon "I know what it's like to be dead". Lennon flipped out on him a bit and wrote "She Said, She Said"
You get it, man. I like your videos. Keep being you!
This is one of my all time favorite albums (along with Rubber Soul and the White Album) and has such a great varied sound. Here, There and Everywhere is one of my all time favorite 'underrated' Beatles songs.
Good job! For No One is such a beautiful and sad song! Lennon said to McCartney: I wished I had written this song!
I love watching reaction videos and just stumbled on yours for the first time. I'm amazed how quickly you pick up the tunes and sing along, but especially your laid back enjoyment of these songs that I grew up listening to. Thanks for doing this.
Ah, the perfection of 2 minute songs. Just loved the way you grooved so effortlessly with each song. Especially Tomorrow Never Knows, where you got the infamous drum beat down. Awesome.
As eclectic as this album is, I respect the fact that they decided to start funky and end funky, and they keep it funky throughout.
A lot of the unusual sounds you heard were basically invented for the album.
Like John wanting to sound like he was chanting from on top of a mountain in Tomorrow Never Knows?
They were doing that before this LP. But ignore that fact: stick with what others tell you to stick with. Keep yourself narrow.
@@jnagarya519 wow you’re condescending as fuck. Who hurt you?
@@fennecfanatic5566 He is a know it all snob. Instead of informing and educating he is people instead making snark remarks
got to get you into my life is actually about pot - it was also covered by earth wind and fire
FiendJony: LUV your insightful, groovy, razor-smart, and sharp analysis of and speculations on the Beatles. Beautiful stuff on the otherworldly, weirdly wild genius of the Beatles.
Hoping to see your reactions to Marvin Gaye's What's Goin' On, another of the great concept albums from the classic Rock era, and anything from Prince, whose wonderful, eclectic weirdness and singular genius definitely alludes to and was influenced by the Fab Beatles.
This is one of the best reactions to an album, The Beatles or otherwise, I've ever seen. You get it, you get music.
It's staggering to think this album came out in 1966. Imagine hearing Tomorrow Never Knows back then, like the aliens had landed. To me Revolver is their strongest collection of songs. I've played it to people before who thought it was a greatest hits album.
Another Beatles sitar song is "The inner light", the flipside from "Lady Madonna" (1968). Some people find it helpful in this Corona time.
Great point😘
Last thing, I promise! “Got To Get You Into My Life” was McCartney’s love song to marijuana.
Actually, the song was inspired by Stevie Wonder's Motown sound. When Paul said it was his love song about marijuana, it was a joke. Paul saw Stevie in concert and was inspired to write this tune.
Tomorrow Never Knows was John Lennon trying to create the experience of an acid trip in a song. The words are taken directly from Timothy Leary's Tibetan Book of the Dead. Paul contributed the tape loops. George brought the idea of the drone sound from Indian music and Ringo created the sick drum beat. This song was the first recorded for this album and started off their Psychedelic phase that flowed in Strawberry Fields Forever and I Am the Walrus. By 1968 they were trying something different with The White Album. The Beatles were always experimenting and pushing musical boundaries.
1965...Rubber Soul. Another great album
@@betsyab121 inspired by Stevie Wonder Motown music? the Beatles right from the early days, had a love for black artists.
@@beatlebrian4404 Absolutely! I just remember hearing Paul say in an interview that he saw Stevie Wonder in concert one night and wrote Got to Get You Into My Life as an homage to Stevie and the Motown sound. :)
"Revolver" was the first Beatles album they produced after they stopped performing live concerts. They pretty much remained a studio band from then on.
Rubber Soul predated Revolver.
Actually not, it was the last album to be released before they decided to give up touring. After this album they went on their last tour
@@hammer221271 But they wouldn't play any songs from it.
@@waynemarvin5661 They hadn't stopped doing concerts when Rubber Soul was released.
I like your normal listener, funny, smart, good critique reaction.. The Beatles are absolutely fascinating! And so colorful! Did you know that the song "Black Bird" by Paul is about the freedom of a black woman... He is on RUclips saying himself.
Men, I love your reactions totally thinking and visualizing each lyrics. I can't wait for more reactions from you to any the beatles. You'll see how versatile these guys are. Thanks for the reaction and keep safe!
The lead guitar jam on "Taxman" was played by Paul McCartney, who was the bass player...
Most Beatles fans say that this album one of best ever albums and abbey road was the last album the Beatles ever recorded together 1969 let it be was recorded before abbey road but was released after abbey road let it be was released in 1970
Abbey Road was indeed the last album recorded. Let It Be came out after The Beatles broke up.
I think both this album and Rubber Soul were the lead up to Sg't Peppers, MMT, and the White album. Those two earlier albums were good, but not as evolved and amazing as the next three.
@@kentclark6420 yes
Damn!!! Good call!
Revolver is, in my opinion, the BEST Beatles album.
Groundbreaking album in its day and consistently topped Rolling Stone's top 500 albums of all time.
My favourite album ever.
14 songs, 34.5 minutes, and not a single goddamn moment wasted. This is my favorite album of all time. I still hear new things on repeated listens.
And don't listen to anything else by them -- especially the LPs that lead to this one. So you don't know what you're missing.
Eleanor Rigby/ Yellow Submarine
Rubber Soul has the same type of vibe to this album and imo it’s even better! It’s the album they made before this one, I’d love to see a reaction to it
That was really enjoyable. You are one of the most sincere reactors out there. Loved it.
“Buried along with her name...”
One of the saddest lyrics out there. I think The Beatles, in spite of their popularity understood the basic human condition. We all hurt, we all wish for different, more.
That's about how I call it, young as they were, they sure had their fingers of the 'pulse' of life or yes, human condition!!
They did!! Plus!!-they were intellectually genius’s!!! (Along of course, with being musical genius’s!!!)
Gosh damn, Pauls basslines are so incredible.
Wow. Watching this young man reminds me of the first time I head "Lonely People"; played in a college musical appreciation class where we listened and considered the lyrics. I know I had the same looks on my face. I remember that no matter what was happening in the musical world, for a solid 8 straight years the F'n Beatles were a step and a half ahead of all the other great bands (and there were so many great ones). The versatility, originality and execution as a unit was unmatched. Kinda close to perfect. Also recall "Good Day Sunshine" on a.m. radio in the car on streets and highways.
I love the beauty of music. We can apply someone else’s words to our own lives
Revolver is my personal favorite Beatles album. It was released in 1966
There were 6 albums BEFORE Revolver and 5 albums AFTER Revolver, so it's right in the middle. In Eleanor Rigby she died ALONG with her name, and so yes, no one would remember her. LOVED your REACTION to "REVOLVER, thoroughly enjoyed your thoughts on each track! I just discovered your channel. I am a "first generation fan," I was 17 in 1964 when the Beatles first arrived in the U.S. and saw them on their first appearance on the ED SULLIVAN SHOW on Feb. 9, 1964. I became a die hard fan that night and still am to this day, and always will be. I saw them in concert in 1964 and 1966 in Cleveland, Ohio.
I LOVE seeing young people like you discovering the Beatles music. Can't wait to watch the rest of your reactions to their albums. I hope you will listen to their earlier albums. You should have started with their first album and listened to the rest chronologically as we did back then, as they were released. THAT is how you can TRULY see HOW they progressed and evolved in such a short period of time. They wrote over 200 songs when they were a group, and after they broke up in 1970, all four of the Beatles went on to have successful solo careers.
Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are the only 2 still alive. Paul just turned 80 on June 18, 2022 and Ringo turned 82 on July 7, 2022 and BOTH are STILL doing their own concert tours. Paul just finished one in June. John Lennon was murdered on Dec. 8, 1980 just 2 months after her turned 40. George Harrison was attacked and stabbed 40 times by a paranoid schizophrenic in his home, his wife was attacked too, on Dec. 30,1999. He nearly died then, but somehow survived. However, George was already weakened by cancer and it is said that this attack just weakened him more. He was suffering from lung cancer which spread to his brain. He died on Nov. 29, 2001 at the age of 58. RIP John and George, they are so missed by us fans.
"HERE, THERE, AND EVERYWHERE, and "FOR NO ONE" were inspired by Paul's then girlfriend/finance of 5 years, JANE ASHER. "YELLOW SUBMARINE was really geared for children and then in 1968 the animated movie called "YELLOW SUBMARINE" was released in the theaters. The Beatles were saving Pepperland from the Blue Meanies who liked to destroy music. It's a colorful, fun movie with beautiful animation and several new Beatles songs in the soundtrack . The REAL Beatles make a short appearance at the end of the movie. The Beatles had 3 other movies "A HARD DAY'S NIGHT" (1964), "HELP!" (1965), "MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR," (1967) and "LET IT BE" (1970)
You are a smooth baller with a great imagination. Thanks for the reactions!
This is the first album they recorded after they decided to stop performing live and touring. I think that really allowed them to focus on the music and gave them the time to experiment and how they started to become the most innovative and influential rock back of all time. Also LSD.
'Sappy love songs'? Paul was proud of so doing. Wings had a big hit in 1976 with 'Silly Love Songs' and he explains it well in the song. It was a song that apparently John Lennon quite liked, and in one of the biopic movies ('Two of Us') where they meet up again after several years, one line of dialogue had John saying " You still writing them silly love songs?"
Love the details in your recap in reactions. I felt the same way when I started to listen to the meaning and history of how the arrived in america and they evolved and changed part of our culture in society. Subscribed !
Revolver and Abbey Road are my two faves. Revolver is also a major psychadelic album. Tomorrow never knows has bits of eastern meditation philosophy references, but also is definitely a song that references their lsd experiences.
Ha, ha! "You had to read books." I still love reading books. We actually played together outside as kids until it was getting dark, rode our bikes, etc. Instead of just staring at our phone's.
The first time I listened to ‘For No One’, it was 1995, my parents were out of town, and I smoked a blunt rolled with the strongest marijuana I’d ever had up to that point. It was raining outside, and I had this playing on mi boom box, and the song fit the atmosphere perfectly, and vice versa. I ended up napping and having amazing dreams.
I watched your White Album 1 & 2, and then came here...I really like that you do albums and really listen and you share your real thoughts along the way and at the end...thank you for your work, I just subbed and set the bell notification :)
So many of these songs are my favourites, this is right at the top of the Beatles albums for me. Such an artistic peak and on the verge of so many new things at the same time. It really speaks of the era.
Very well done review. Very insightful and you had some great observations. I've been listening to these guys for 5 decades and, still to this day, every once in awhile I hear stuff I didn't notice before in certain songs. They put alot into their songs, lot's of layers but not overdone.
Just quickly passing through...but wanted to say...that IF there were Emmy's for 'Reaction Vids' you deserve one...showing them all how it's done.
Kudos.
The Beatles are simply the best.
Go on back further back in Beatle history. We are with you.
Your creative play with the Beatles cover to me is an inspirational insight as to your cleverness, that was absolutely brilliant, never saw anyone play with a Beatles cover like this before. Good on you for that and also your appreciation of the Beatles music too. Have a good day!
Some would consider it sacreligus....
"Tomorrow Never Knows," was experimenting with sounds. Words has lots of Easter teachings in it. Like when you meditate. They also believe in reincarnation. George was especially into Eastern teachings. The great thing about The Beatles was their versatility. All had different personalities & moods. From soft live songs, to thinking songs, to harder rock like "Helter Skelter."
I really appreciate your analysis of each album. I'm impressed with the detail you give and how much you listen to each song. I've really enjoyed listening to your thoughts!
You've got to see the Yellow Submarine cartoon. So amazing.
My fav songs from Revolver are "I'm Only Sleeping" & "You're Bird Can Sing." Both John's. But love all the songs. 1st time Eastern music w the Sitar was used in pop music. Tax Man is hilarious. Taxes are much higher in UK than USA. You should see the film, "Yellow Submarine." It's a cartoon but really cool. My daughter watched it when little then went onto their other films. But it's fun for both kids & adults & captures their psychedelic era perfectly!
I love seeing a young guy like you react to this great music I discovered starting in 1963. Enjoy your Magical Musical .Mystery Tour. They are the GOATs
Great reaction!! I love this particular album especially, though it’s hard to pick any one of them. And on the song AND YOUR BIRD CAN SING I just love the dueling lead guitars of Paul McCartney & George Harrison ❤️
All Beatles albums are great. Also, try Rubber Soul. Another masterpiece released just before Revolver.
Man you are quickly becoming my favorite reactor on youtube
Lets go king, this album is so damn chill. Good vibes! We love it!
You may know this already but if not, records were limited to 3 mins to get radio airplay. Historical fact to take with you on your journey. Not sure exactly when that changed but it was a huge deal when radio played Hey Jude for aprox 7 mins.
Tomorrow never knows is John doing a song about his First Acid Trip! The STRANGE Little noises, and How Music 🎶 sounded to him while he was TRIPIN!! That's what A Xavier Music History Grad told me!! And I was a kid, and it STILL sounds as Plauesabel to me!!
McCartney introduced the tape loops that he did at home
@@Kos0818 100% correct my friend.
Got To Get You Into My Life really showed what Paul Mccartney would get into in his later years, I always thought it was a Wings Song. React to the Imagine album next!
Check out Paul's nod to his own sappiness in a song called Silly Love Songs. It was Paul McCartney and Wings. In response to something John said.
There are 2 accompanying singles to this album: "Paperback Writer" and "Rain".....they didn't include the singles on the albums back then
I like you dude, good job, relevant insights and glad you appreciate the music
Good to have another Beatles fan join us.
YEEEEEEEEES. Amazing reaction bro, I liked it a lot you hearing one of the best albums ever made, the second greater after Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. :)
Stevie Wonder covered "Got to Get you Into My Life," along w many others. But his cover was the most popular one & Paul loved it!
"of the beginning.. of the beginning" Yes, it's about time being cyclical, rather than linear. It's based on The Tibetan Book of The Dead. "The beginning is also the end" etc. You may have seen the symbol of the snake forming a circle with its tail in its mouth -- that represents time. Time only exists in the 3D / physical realm.
Great Reaction, My Friend.
Rubber Soul the year b4 should be next :)
My favorite album of all time. The mono mix sounds even better.
I dig the way you do your reactions
Great modern insight !...on a classic
By the way, McCartney plays that solo on taxman
Damn I thought it was George
@@Leon-cd1iy George tried it at first, but he couldn’t do it, so McCartney did it instead and did put a bit of that Indian tune in the solo
@@lancelot771 could have done easily....just not the way mcarntey wanted it...george harrison was a .far more accomplished lead guitar player 😀
@@urgonnaluvit indeed
@@urgonnaluvit
It's a George song,
so it was not Paul's business
to call what he wanted.
George wanted him to play the solo.
Just a little note on “And Your Bird Can Sing”-usually it’s George on the lead guitar. This time, they put both Paul and George on dual lead guitars. It’s what gives the amazing sound to the lead guitar the two of them playing a dual lead.
You’ve got me with your programs! Totally hooked! Your first time looks at these amazing albums, which I’ve heard so many times are all new through your reactions, and I see and hear them differently thanks to your reactions! There are endless arguments amongst Beatles fans about which is their best album, and the argument usually centers on 4 albums: Sgt. Pepper, the White Album, Abbey Road, and this one. I’m one of those people that thinks this album, Revolver, is the best and their masterpiece, if only by a whisker over the other ones!
Paul surely did a lot of sappy love songs. But he also did Helter Skelter and other experimental tracks. Stg. Pepper was his chlid and that album changed the game completely.
Most of Paul's love songs are not sappy or silly. And many of his songs were not, or were barely love songs, by any definition.
Sooo relieved you got a chance to listen to the original, unabridged, U.K. version of the album...Capitol in the U.S. was in the habit of shaving a few cuts off each album and compiling extra releases with the leftover cuts...'And Your Bird Can Sing', 'Dr. Robert', and at least one more (Lennon!) song were thus shaved off the release most North Americans were familiar with, unawares, for years!
Yellow Submarine was an animated movie back then starring animated versions of the members of the band with their own voices.
Actually, the voices were other actors. The only thing The Beatles contributed were four or five throwaway songs for the soundtrack.
@@betsyab121 and the grand finale when Beatles appeared as themselves and sang "All Together Now"
One of my all time favorite movies! I have a Dreaded Glove tattoo and a Yellow Submarine tattoo!
I think you could spend a lifetime just appreciating And Your Bird Can Sing. Start with those two claps after the guitar solo.
It's so great seeing young people react to one of greatest albums of all time, your reactions are great. By the way the staccato strings on Eleanor Rigby are a homage to Bernard Herman's music in the shower scene of the film Psycho.
Got to Get You into my Life was really influenced by the records that were coming out of Motown Records and Stax Records. The punchy horns were really a big feature of American soul music of the era. Such a great touch.
Jony. Another awesome reaction! Now that you have several of their albums under your belt, you're getting closer to being ready for a couple of Beatles movies. Maybe not quite ready yet, but close. Suggest you review the Rubber Soul album that came out before Revolver. Then do "Magical Mystery Tour" that came after Sgt Peppers. The two movies for you to consider are "A Hard Days Night" that came out in 1964 during the height of "Beatlemania". An entertaining movie about a day in the life of the Fab Four making their way to London to do a live TV performance. The other movie is a kinda trippy animation movie called "Yellow Submarine" with lots of positive messaging. Both are chocked full of music too. Of course watch these any time you want Jony, it's just a little more fun knowing the music first as many of us did heading into the theaters to see these. There is a docudrama of sorts you may enjoy called "Birth of the Beatles". It's a 1979 Dick Clark production that covers their early years from 1959 (before they found a drummer), to early 1964 when they made their historic appearance on the Ed Sullivan show in the US.
I was wondering did they have movies when I was listening to magical mystery tour I saw that they had a movie from it so yea I’ll check those out too. I listened to magical mystery tour before this album as well I’ll be posting it the upcoming week.
@@fiendjony778 Cool! Looking forward to that. I noted your comment about Yellow Submarine and thought, "Yep. Jony's about ready for that one. LOL!" It's a trippy cartoon featuring them. The real Beatles do appear in it too. And since you've listened to MMT, you're ready for it. To answer your question, the only movie they had when MMT was released was Hard Days Night. They did release that movie you mentioned called Magical Mystery Tour in late 1967 based on the album released earlier. But Yellow Submarine was release in 1968 containing whole and short song elements of theirs up to that point. In fact the Yellow Submarine album was released a couple of months after the movie. I think it was largely a George Martin project to accompany the movie.
"Help!" is great as well, I love it 👍
@@fiendjony778 Oh yes. Of course, how could I have forgotten "Help!"?! Thanks Эй! Палыч. Эй! Палыч is correct, Help! came out in 1965, so add that to the list. A musical/comedy like the others. The Beatles liked to be funny. There's a new documentary coming out that contains footage from 50+ hours of unseen film footage in the studio, having fun cranking out music like "Get Back" at least, since the title is "The Beatles: Get Back".

One of the reasons that Revolver is "too short" is that in those days they took the singles off, in effect. The singles that would have been on it were Paperback Writer and Rain.
I think Sgt. Pepper does have a great unity to it that has nothing to do with pretending to be some other band giving a (fantastic) concert to an audience stunned into submission. The songs are for the most part both similar and different in sound. Most are "open", often being little more than vocals over bass, but most are also quite distinct.
By the way, "vocals over bass" is a great trick that was re-discovered by the Police in the early 80s, more or less. The Big Three from Synchronicity (Every Breath You Take, Wrapped Around Your Finger, King of Pain) are all basically "vocals over bass". It then tended to copied somewhat, which has something to do with shy 80s music tends to have a very good overall sound.
