Right, that's it, all of us off to Hamburg to put in our ten thousand hours...
I've read a lot of books about The Beatles over the years I agree George Martin was a genius. He was able to take the Beatles ideas and invent ways of putting them down on tape with various studio wizardry.
The Beatles however did a lot too. On Tomorrow Never Knows the tape loops were made by Paul McCartney. At the time he was doing a lot of experimenting at home with tape recorders. I highly recommend the book The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions which has the studio details of each song. The Beatles and George Martin rule!
I dunno, the Led Zeppelin remasters are fantastic. A real improvement over the original, a clearer, cleaner mix, without losing anything.
And not only Beatles. The individual albums are all there too. Had a hankering to listen to some George Harrison a little while ago, I shall indulge myself now.
The Beatles catalog was remastered in 2009 and sounds great. I don't know about solo Harrison.
Also The Number 1s album was remixed this year by George Martin's son Giles. It's available for streaming.
There's very little solo Harrison worth remastering. He dumped all he had into ATMP, then it was another 30 yrs of "Crackerbox Palace"-grade drivel.
That's a hell of a stretch to isolate yourself completely from "Happiness Is A Warm Gun", DD!
Used to have a girlfriend who was obsessed with The Beatles, she even went to Liverpool University. Had some great times in the city but was kinda put off the band and never really listened to them. Bit late to the party but I may just go and see what all the fuss was about now that I can hear them at my leisure.
The B-side of Abbey Road is one of my all-time favourite pieces of music, love it to bits. John Lennon hated it apparently, said it was just bits of songs stuck together, just junk, but for me it works amazingly. The transition from Polythene Pam into She Came In Through The Bathroom Window gives me shivers every time.
Me quite the opposite. I love listening to strawberry fields forever one channel at a time. Seem like two completely different tunes.
Not sure about the books but I've heard Lennon saying that Martin took way too much credit for the out there creative bits of the recording. Especially with things like revolution 9 where it was all Beatles + yoko with her specific way of doing things.
I think in those days the artist vs producer balance leaned more in artist's favour unlike now where at times producer will take all the credit for the final creation.
Harrison here i come! While All Things is far and away his best, I enjoy much of the later works.
And you know, it's been so long (years) since I've listened to the Beatles I bet I can fully appreciate the albums again. I'm the dude who prefers Help! & earlier recordings to the later ones though. I always felt like they were more consistent, if not as creative, albums.
I was probably the biggest fanatic, as a kid, that you'd ever want to see. I'm think I had every album on vinyl by the time I was about 11. Books, posters; you name it.
As my listening palette has expanded over the years, I find that (for me) the divide between Lennon and McCartney songs, in terms of artistic merit and longevity, has grown immensely. I find, for example, that I'll skip right over "Drive My Car" and stop on "Norwegian Wood". Stuff like "Got To Get You Into My Life", "Penny Lane", most of Sgt. Peps, Ob-La-Di, "Ob-La-Da"... just way too cloying, trite and irksome. Conversely, Lennon songs have only grown in stature. "Baby, YaRM", "I'm Only Sleeping", "I'm So Tired", "Yer Blues"... I can't ever tire of them. Indeed, I like McCartney's 1st solo record and the LAST Wings record more than most of his Beatles output. Rather hear "Junk" or "Arrow Through Me" than "Long And Winding Road".
The Abbey Road side 2 suite is a notable exception.
I've always had a warm spot for Harrisongs.
.
I agree with this almost completely, although I find Lennon's stuff as less-enjoyable than that fop McCartney's stuff as time goes by. Harrison is my man, and I still immensely enjoy Help! and before period without much skipping around.
Pshaw. Every American knows they were an overnight success.
Can't get behind John on that one, tho' - side 2 of Abbey Road completely blew my mind first time I heard it. So many genius moments - not the least of which is that the lack of a consistent narrative was part of the concept!
In Mono!
I pity the fool who didn't see The Beatles on Ed Sullivan. On Friday we were 'Leave it to Beaver'. By Monday morning we somehow all had long hair and were carrying guitars around. Had a conversation with Ringo (long story), crux of the conversation was something like "Sure, I play guitar. Me and ten million other idiots who saw you guys on Ed Sullivan. We all wanted to be Beatles." He laughed and said "We all wanted to be Elvis." And, in a way, they were.
File these two under 'It's a small world'. Two Liverpudlians live in my remote region, both Beatles contemporaries. My next door says he preferred The Cavern as a trad jazz club. Once The Beatles moved in, he says it was all sweat and noise. (Sounds great to me!)
The Pete Best group was playing with the local casino. The wife of the casino manager was a teenage Beatles fan in the pre-Ringo days. I sat at the table while she and Pete Best reminisced about the old days. Wish I had recorded that conversation.
Sorry- I'm going back to my rocking chair now for a nap.
Errrr... So, yeah. The Beatles are streaming.
The entire Revolver album felt like a huge turning point. They seemed more interested in creating something new and different (Tomorrow Never Knows, Taxman) rather than "safe" pop hits from Rubber Soul and Help!. This was the album that they started making songs for themselves, and not the fans.
I constantly go back and forth between Revolver and the White Album as "my favorite Beatles album".
My exact two.
Amazing that there were three such great song writers in the one band. And Ringo - and while not a song writer, I feel he is somewhat underrated as a drummer - never that flashy, but always tasteful.
And a total metronome. His time is as tight as anyone in the biz.
These guys sound like Oasis. I miss Oasis
Haha
