"Come Together" was another in a long string of Double A sided hits from the Beatles. (Most singles released back then -- by "singles," we mean 45 RPM records -- had an A side and a B side, and top 40 radio usually only played the A side. But with the Beatles, most of their singles had double A sides, and both sides got significant airplay.) The flip side of this particular single was arguably one of the most beautiful love songs ever written (so said Frank Sinatra), a George Harrison composition called "Something." There is a line of demarkation in Beatles music. Since most of what you've heard from the Beatles has been from 1966 and earlier, it's fair to say you've been listening mostly to songs that came before that line of demarkation. I define that line as being pre-Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and starting with the release of their album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. That's when the Beatles music took a serious creative turn and they got much more experimental in the studio. One could argue (and they'd probably be right) that the real line of demarkation is between the early days when they were touring, and the music they created AFTER the stopped touring and devoted themselves to creating amazing music strictly in the studio. (Both lines are around the same time, give or take. So it's probably no accident that Sgt. Pepper's seems to manifest as an apparent dividing line.). Okay, I'm getting MUCH too analytical here. Bottom line is, the Beatles were mostly 3 guitars and drums up to the Sgt. Pepper's album (with a few notable exceptions), and then the whole spectrum of symphonic sounds opened up to them starting with Sgt. Pepper's. Come Together is a bit of a throwback inasmuch as the sounds in it are mostly comprised of what you can get from three guitars and drums (there is some keyboard and mellotron in it, too). But that muted sound in the intro that runs throughout much of the song is unmistakably a Beatles/George Martin creation. George Martin, by the way, was their Producer, and while there may have been much discussion about who the "fifth Beatle" was (was it Pete Best? was it Billy Preston?), I would argue it was George Martin all along. He's the one who they collaborated with to come up with many of the sounds that even they didn't know would be possible to get. Martin was a genius. You would do well to Google him and read up on his amazing life.

To me, the line of demarcation is the "Rubber Soul" album, followed by the "Revolver" album.
@dggydddy592 жыл бұрын
The real demarcation (spelled with a C not a K, for future reference) for the Beatles is arguably Rubber Soul, which is when their recording process changed from the strict EMI mandated 3 hour formal sessions to recording as long as they wanted to, a very big change. It's also the last album that contained songs they performed live. Revolver is another arguable demarcation point. They have a new engineer who is as full of ideas as the Beatles themselves. They're taking LSD and their consciousness is expanding, Revolver is often called the best Beatles album, as if there could be such a thing. Sgt. Peppers really continued the massive progression that began at Rubber Soul. If anything, the three of them together constitute the demarcation point of the growth and artistic progression of this singular historic phenomenon called The Beatles. IMHO, of course. Cheers!
@jasonremy16272 жыл бұрын
I'd agree with the above. Rubber Soul was the first album where they started to experiment, and by Revolver, they were in full experimentation. If you want to draw a line, it's between Beatles For Sale and Rubber Soul; Revolver it's arguably their most experimental album ever.

After the Beatles discovered psychedelics and they visited India, the songs shifted from simple "happy go lucky" pop tunes to songs with deeper, cryptic meanings. All 4 members wrote songs with John Lennon and Paul McCartney writing 80% of their music. Please don't ignore the quiet, spiritual guy, George Harrison (Here Comes the Sun, While My Guitar Gently Weeps and Something) and the fun dude, Ringo Starr (Octopus' Garden, Yellow Submarine and With a Little Help from My Friends).
