Ringo does here one of his greatest contributions to drumming: the drums grows and gets bigger, louder, complete and busier as the song walks to its end. He did that a lot: in the beginning, theres not even a hi-hat making a pattern (except the open hi-hat when he hits the snare). That hi-hat will only appear later. He did that in a lot of songs, like in "something" and "while my guitar gently weeps". Its a very intelligent and creative way to play the drums, adding to the song as it grows, bringing something new in each part of it. Besides, here we can hear some very strange and hard to replicate drum fills. His drum fills were always like that so strange and unique.
You nailed it man. A very nuanced player who brought the exact right part to every single Beatles song. Not to mention creating some of the most memorable drum parts/fills/patterns in popular music.
@@jamesabrams6908 "...almost patternless" is a brilliant way to describe Ringo's drumming here, and in many other songs. Thanks for posting your comment.
His fill came from his being a leftie and playing a right-y kit. This drum part actually sounds harder than it is because of the "unorthodox" riff and chord progression.
We are unworthy!!! We are unworthy!!! Far beyond the glittering walls of the Beatle universe, lies this stuff. Clean bootlegs for free! Beatle Freaks' wildest dreams!! Revolution Number 9 deconstructed ON HEADPHONES!!! A Krishna Orgasm, on toast!
That guitar is sublime...First heard this in the late 70's when the BBC aired all the Beatle films one christmas during school holidays...I sat with an old cassette recorder with my finger hovering over the record button during the 'Let it be' film to catch the music...a year before I got the vinyl...I use to get a Beatle album or two at birthdays and christmas...
@@steveconn I am not talking about complexity or speed. Nowadays there is a plethora of guitar players believing that getting better is about going at the highest bpm: nothing's more wrong. Music is not a race, it's an art and art is about beauty. It could be the simplest in the world but that would still be irrelevant: George's note are just sublime and show great melodic taste.
A classic. I love these deconstructed tracks. I've heard the songs thousands of times as a whole but hearing the separate tracks really makes me appreciate them even more. It shows up details that I'd never noticed.
We are far beyond the glittering walls of the Beatle Universe, Paul. In happy land and the blue meanies merely have no ethics or consciences. A Beatle Freaks' Heaven!!!
La bateria de Ringo, los golpes justos, excelente groove, el bajo de paul tremendo, la telecaster de George, ina belleza y solo uno de los mas hermosos en mi opinion, la voz de John y el falsete de paul, la dupla perfecta, teniendo en cuenta q fue grabada en la terraza con 7° de temperatura, sin metronomo mas q Richard Starkey, las teclas de Preston, el complemento perfecto para esta balada blusera tan poco valorada, pero a mi criterio...magnifica
George's fills after the solo beginning about 10:08 here are my favorite thing about this song. And I love everything about this song. But those tasty fills and especially the low note he hits shortly after is magic to me.
@@stonesinmyblood27 As long as we expose them to it. I'm for stuff like this. I'm sure there were people familiar with them said hey I'll watch this and will likely find themselves looking up other music
Awesome. So great to hear these tracks isolated, after years of listening to them on, radio, vinyl, 8-track, cassette, and CD...and now RUclips. Yes...all of those formats. Lol.
John in an interview had to admit that Paul and Ringo were the best at bass and drums. He was upset at George at the time because of a book where George did not mention him so he said George was just an alright guitarist. In my book they all were terrific together.
Being a Houstonian, from Texas...I always took pride in knowing Billy Preston, (who is from Houston), played on several of The Beatles tracks. His playing is always so superb, (I still get goosebumps, when hearing his 'Don't Let Me Down', contribution). One could even make the argument Preston could be called, 'The Fifth Beatle', (even though I believe that moniker belongs to George Martin), But imagine my dismay when I heard about Preston's indiscretions. I won't say what he is accused of, (you can research it yourself and make your own judgment), but if true...it is a real let down. As Ringo once said, "Billy never put his fingers in the wrong place". Well...maybe once he did. Sadly.
Always loved that John was off key on the last word of the phrase "too-oo-ooo-ooo-"ooo". It sounds so wrong that it sounds right. Only THE BEATLES!!❤🎶❤🎶❤🎶❤
George Martin was a part of their whole (commercial) career. When the boys wanted to do something, they asked him how. They wouldn't have been able to pull off any of that without him. They learned from him, therefore his influence is the greatest on their music and overall sound. Preston was there for half an album. Obviously, Let it Be would'nt be the same without him, but I wouldn't call him a fifth Beatle. More of an honorary Beatle. Lots of different people contributed to making Beatles records. We don't call the orchestra the fifth Beatle. But, I will say, without Billy there to lift their spirits and inject something fresh into them, they don't get through those sessions without him. His presence is felt and he deserves praise for his contributions. But, Martin, to me, is more intricately tied into them than anyone else.
It gets kind of icky the constant competition between fans when one of them has been dead for 42 years and Paul seems to cherish John now as much as ever. But it will continue on because they never topped their partnership and they were about as equal as two frontmen could ever be. There will never be a clear winner lol
One of the tines on the electric piano is quite out of tune! sounds cool though. I read they had to hoist Billy's Rhoades piano through a skylight to get it on the roof, as it wouldn't fit in the stairwell.
I'm glad somebody else noticed that. I was going to say something but I was afraid to sound sacrilegious. The guitar tuning sounds a little rough as well, but perhaps that's part of the charm of the track.
@@KevinTambling Lennon was apparently fond of out-of-tuning his guitar, it brings a pretty great effect to a lot of beatles songs such as Sexy Sadie for example.

Does George change from the bridge pickup to both pickups during the solo? That solo sounds *prototypical* tele middle, but the rest of the song it's hard to tell.
13:01 I always wondered if the guys were okay letting that vocal mistake go out into the world 🌎. Still a great, great piece of music no matter what though 👍

@@yassassin6425 Haha! You got it! It's actually on RUclips. 'Lennon meets Penny'. I watched it a couple of times before I realised exactly what JL says.
Yeah the Ric is a solid body bass and its a much more all around professional bass than the Hofner, so it had the capability to stay strong even going up the neck. The problem here is that Paul is using his Hofner with Rotosound tapewound strings which are so light and bendy its almost impossible for them to not go out of tune even a bit.
I think it's due to the Rotosound Tru Bass nylon tapewounds that he switched to for these sessions. They don't have the greatest intonation, even on a long-scale bass.
Wow is that Fender Rhodes piano out of tune? Either that or it's fighting against something. Bed news either way. Totally superflous and anyway pedestrian playing. Could be mixed right out and the guitars can easily carry it to better effect.

Hoefner is so out of tune half of let it be tracks) interesting-Paul did not have any kind of this problem tillhe switched to Rick in 65-66
Yeah the Ric is a solid body bass and its a much more all around professional bass than the Hofner, so it had the capability to stay strong even going up the neck. The problem here is that Paul is using his Hofner with Rotosound tapewound strings which are so light and bendy its almost impossible for them to not go out of tune even a bit.
With the hofner strings, they tend to come out of tune when pushed down too hard so that's why it would be out of tune
I think it's due to the Rotosound Tru Bass nylon tapewounds that he switched to for these sessions. They don't have the greatest intonation, even on a long-scale bass.
Why Paul's bass is slightly out of tune? 🤔
He used his Hofner Bass.
