Mike, thanks a lot for your brilliant lessons. I am a 69 year old guitar player from Holland, who grew up with the Beatles, but I am still discovering the essence of their music thanks to you.
It's debatable from me to you reached no one on the BBC's official billboard charts in may 63 it's a question that often pops up in quizzes and please please me often is the bug bearer but George Martin did say them historical words and we were blessed with an array of glorious moments and music by them
Always believed that the Beatles were amazing, but it turns out that just amazing doesn't get halfway to describing them because they were absolute geniuses and you make it all come alive, Mike. Thank you.
I've known these songs for more than 50 years. I played basic barre chords for ages. But every time I watched footage of them in concert, I wondered what they were playing. I finally know! Thank you for this gift! Cynthia
The thing for a solo guitarist at home practicing is, which part are you gonna play/learn, you almost have to choose which one to learn unless you're an octopus. If you get good enough you can kind of play a compromise of both.
Thanks for that Mike. Loved it. I get goosebumps ever time I hear that song as I remember how I felt . . . ooh about 60 odd years ago . . . when I first heard it!
Love your break downs of all these classic Beatles songs Mike. Thanks so much for taking the time to do it and thanks for your cheerful, pleasant manner.
That is incredible story I never get tired of hearing story's like that about what really goes on behind the scenes of greatest musical act in history of world called beatles
Mike I cannot thank you enough for your all your fantastic lessons on Beatles. It´s hardly seen such a combination of a great musician and lovely , enthusiastic, outgoing personality... all your lesson are a big thing and your help to amateur guitar players is enormous. By far the best tutorials on the timeless Beatless songs on the Internet. Thank you soooo much for all you have done and posted!!!
Mike Pachelli; a one man Beatles tribute band. In an interview, Paul recalled how they pleaded with George Martin to not release "How Do You Do It" saying, "We can't be seen wearing that song."
Mike, just found you. You make everything very understandable. You're quite an impressive artist yourself. "Please, Please Me" is one of my very favorite early Beatles songs. You fill in the blanks with chord illustrations others don't. I now have a much better understanding of the John-George bi-play. The splitscreen and the final version of yours is outstanding. Thank you very much for keeping John and George alive!
Mike, I have seen several of your videos and enjoyed them all. Your attention to detail is amazing Mike. Thank you for so graciously sharing your work.
Always the best mike, thank you so much, it’s awesome to learn from someone who not only knows beatle song by heart, but by someone who shares such admiration for the lads. Thank you.
Wow, love your deep dive into the history of the songs. Really cool. I remember hearing the Beatles around ‘62 or 63’ for the first time. Still love to hear these songs. Thanks!
Fantastic yet again Mike, thank you. Your enthusiasm and passion is a joy. It's lovely to see how they played. Have a lovely Christmas and a happy new year!!
Hey Mike! Never realized George followed the vocal line on his Gretsch!!! Now that I listen to it again, there it is!! Thanks for the lesson, great coverage on an amazing song!! Can't wait for more!!
11/30/22 Fantastic job recreating all the authentic detail and all the correct "Beatles Chord-Shapes", that they used in all their early songs. Even what seems at first to be a simple Beatles song, is embellished with all sorts of hidden, complex detail, that may be buried in the recordings, but can be seen and heard I n live performances. No other band ever played better when live, than The Beatles, and you always replicate that perfectly. Thank you for your great work.
Excellent! Excellent as always! YOU will go down in history as the man who parsed the Beatles’ guitar playing into a form that both novices and the musically trained can grasp and savor. Thank you !!
Absolutely outstanding Mike and thank you for taking the time and effort to upload this very accurate account of the Beatles song ... The back story is also just as important as the song itself , a nice touch to compliment the video ... Merry Christmas to you ...
This is possibly my favourite (or second favourite after I Saw her ..) Beatles song done by my def Fave Beatles Boss , Mike P. Can't believe I missed it in my feeds. Brilliant! Ty, Mike!
The more I listen to Please, Please Me the more I think it’s their greatest song. I’m pretty sure I first heard this about a month after JFK’s assassination. For that generation, the Beatles pulled a lot of young people out of the shock and gloom of that horrible event.
Another GREAT one Mike! I love the historical background and "Fun Facts"! And typing of "Fun", you can really tell you had fun with this one! Cheers, MB
This is one of my favorite songs of all time - but your lessons are so comprehensive and clear that I can’t help but learn so many Beatles tunes. Just a fantastic channel and you seem like a great guy too. I really look forward to your videos.
Terrific lesson & great rendition of that classic Beatles tune Mike! How those four lads from Liverpool were able to write & play all of those songs is totally incomprehensible to me.
You should be made Professor of The Beatles music Mike . Another insightful and enjoyable lesson . One of the only good things about this terrible time being locked up is your lessons.
Another amazing lesson and accurate performance of a Beatles song. The music is so perfect, I don’t even mind your singing! lol. And you get extra credit for the George Lucas effect in the lower left box. 2 of you singing in harmony, in sync and can’t even tell that you layered it. As a professional video editor, I’m impressed.
Mike; you are the man!!! This was fun to watch. Thx for the tip about them slowing/speeding the tape. I play bass along to the Please Please Me mono track and I have to tune my bass between Eb and E to sound in tune with The Beatles.
Thank you so much Professor Pachelli for all your wonderful lessons.........please take good care.....all the best! ...............Love The Beatles........always..........
Fabulous!!! So much information an techniques. I´ve been playing The Beatles for more than 30 years but never got so much tricks and basic stuff like those in Mike´s videos.God bless people like him. By the way, he looks like John Lennon early 1967.
When they first brought PPM to Martin, he listened and then suggested they increase the tempo to which they responded “What’s tempo?” Innocence and genius colliding. Great job, Mike!

Please keep these lessons coming. The most accurate and detailed on RUclips
Archie Tomlinson - Thanks and Will do - many more to come!
Your knowledge of Beatle history is accurate! Great job!
I think accurate might not be the best compliment, although in this day and age it probably is
I think so too, I never hear him tell some facts wrong. = Accurate. And the playing is VERY convincing.
Mike, thanks a lot for your brilliant lessons. I am a 69 year old guitar player from Holland, who grew up with the Beatles, but I am still discovering the essence of their music thanks to you.

Always believed that the Beatles were amazing, but it turns out that just amazing doesn't get halfway to describing them because they were absolute geniuses and you make it all come alive, Mike. Thank you.
I do not know how to play any instrument, I just love Mike's love of the music.
i may have said this before but will again - these are the best Beatles guitar videos ever. You are a great teacher!
Wow, thanks!
Mike is a Beatles scholar extraordinaire.
I've known these songs for more than 50 years. I played basic barre chords for ages. But every time I watched footage of them in concert, I wondered what they were playing. I finally know! Thank you for this gift!

Cynthex - you are most welcome - glad I can be of some assistance!
The thing for a solo guitarist at home practicing is, which part are you gonna play/learn, you almost have to choose which one to learn unless you're an octopus. If you get good enough you can kind of play a compromise of both.
You make my 69 year old heart feel young again❤️
"I think you've got your first Number 1" great job Mike. Thoroughly enjoyed.
Thanks for that Mike. Loved it. I get goosebumps ever time I hear that song as I remember how I felt . . . ooh about 60 odd years ago . . . when I first heard it!
one of my top 5 favorite Beatles songs. John's harmonica makes it so much better
Love your break downs of all these classic Beatles songs Mike. Thanks so much for taking the time to do it and thanks for your cheerful, pleasant manner.
Glad you like them!

Almost like John and George themselves making guitar lessons of their songs. Thank you Mike for the great, detailed lessons.
Dude, please keep making videos like this. Thank you for passing along your knowledge, very insightful.
You got it!

Bless you, Mike, for dissecting these recordings and helping to understand why exactly they sound so great. Thank you.
Amazing as ever. Keep them coming Mike! Merry Christmas.
Happy holidays!
These Beatles lessons are priceless, Mike.
Mike, you're awesome, truly! This video was too much work for a few thousand views... We really appreciate it!

My prayers are answered!! I've wanted to hear your take on the song for awhile and I'm more than happy to see it!! Sounds amazing as usual.

Wow. Doesn’t look simple to me. And to think George was barely 20 when he came up with all his bits and riffs. Amazing. Thanks!
Absolutely outstanding Mike and thank you for taking the time and effort to upload this very accurate account of the Beatles song ... The back story is also just as important as the song itself , a nice touch to compliment the video ... Merry Christmas to you ...
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT Mike. Please keep making these, they are so Accurate and Great to watch. THANKS..!!

All your guitars amps and pedals all so perfect!!!
Mike you are simply the best teacher of Beatles as there is. Thanks so much.
I loved hearing/watching this, Mike. It's the next best thing for those of us who wanted to be Beatles ourselves.
Wow!! Oh boy, what a fabulous lesson! Thanks Mike. I can see you being in the charts with this one.
I never saw beatles video in such deep understanding, and analysis on both John and George's guitar play. Great job.
I think this song is really great ... rhythm, melody, vocal harmonies and a great Ringo.
Bravo Mike. !!
