Superb bass by McCartney. One of the best Lennon songs

Also Ringo's best drumming. The Beatles foray into psychedelic music. Incredible to believe this was a B side on a single.

Ringo himself said in numerous interviews that he viewed this as his best drumming track with the Beatles. That's saying a lot.

How about his drumming on TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS ❓🔥❗ Killer drum pattern. Ringo is a steady powerhouse on every song.

@ricknbacker5626 26 күн бұрын

Excellent dissertation. A very concise and cogent reaction to Rain. A drug induced Tour de Force song from John. At this time Tape Speed Manipulation was becoming more common on Beatles songs. Here the band first played the instrumental track in a higher key (A major) and at a faster tempo. Whilst speeding up the tape machine during the recording of the basic tract. When the tape machines speed was restored to the standard setting (making the song now in the key of G major) it gave the instruments more depth and sustain. John then sang his lead vocal with the tape machine slowed down. Again, when the tape machine was restored to standard speed, John's voice had an almost otherworldly quality. Amazing. 2 separate tape speed manipulations in 1 song! Meaning "RAIN", the song we've "known for all these years', was in reality never performed by the Beatles and was a creation of 2 separate 'songs'. Great reaction P R. I really enjoyed it. RNB

I have never heard a Beatles tribute band attempt this song. (and I've heard many) That includes the national touring band "Rain"! None of them want to tackle the intricate bass lines and Ringo's fantastic drumming.

One thing you'll notice in this video is the eye communication between the Beatles as they perform. There's one point where you can see George looking over at and watching John, the both Paul and George together look over at John to take their cues in the song. The Beatles magical band chemistry at work!

I think I'm going to go on a Philip does the Beatles reaction holiday. You once asked me what brought me to this channel, and I responded to you with two words: The Beatles". So It's time to look again at these classic, amazing programs you've done on the Beatles to date! And what's nice is that you've done enough of these programs that it becomes like a holiday and or festival atmosphere with the duration of entertainment by these programs for me.

Philip, you have to notice Paul McCartney's bass line in this song. Very melodic, and the engineer Geoff Emerick cleverly took a loudspeaker and used it as a microphone for Paul's bass to add "punch" to it. One of the first Beatles tracks with a heavy melodic bass line. Their earlier music the bass wasn't nearly as prominent as this, but all Beatles song after this would all be 'bass heavy", and would become an integral part of their sound.

@DJBilodeau Ай бұрын

I may have said it before here, but Ringo points to this song as his best drumming performance, his personal favorite with the Beatles.

@DJBilodeau 2 ай бұрын

Yep, right on, Philip! It's the Beatles 3-part harmony. . .nothing else sounds like John, Paul and George singing together like this one. The 3-part harmonies were key to the sonic arrangement of this track.

@sourisvoleur4854 2 ай бұрын

"B side" refers not to an album but a single -- a 7" record that plays at 45 rpm and generally has one song on each side. On this single, Paperback Writer was the "A" side (the "main" one on the disk), and the "B" side (also called flip side and b/w) is Rain. Neither of them are on any albums other than compilation albums.

It was not the first Psychedelic song but the Beatles were the most popular human beings in the world in 66 and they introduced psychedelia to millions of listeners .. 8 Miles High by The Byrds came out before this but was banned from US radio very soon after it came out ...

When they did a playback in the studio the tape was put on backwards. John thought it was great and wanted the entire song played backwards. But the others vetoed him except for the reprise at the end which is actually backwards.

One of the first, if not thee first song to use feedback. Ringo’s beat and drum fils make a strong statement that enhances the dream like feeling of the harmonies. Maybe the first “psychedelic” song. The backwards playback of John’s lead towards the end is another innovation that is the “first” time use in this song.

The song with the feedback was I Feel Fine, released in November 1964.

@StanSwan 20 күн бұрын

They did a lot of tricks with tape speed on this song. The guitar parts were played much faster and were slowed down as was John's vocal giving it this other worldly sound you could never do live. Then the backwards vocals that has never been done before this song. Some say John did it other their producer George Martin did but they are both now passed on so we will never really know. Might be they both had a part in it? Amazing song on really their best album IMO.

One of their better songs and very much forgotten bc it’s a B side of the single Paperback Writer. This was recorded just before they recorded Revolver and they stopped touring. First song with backwards lyrics. You want to listen to Tomorrow Never Knows from Revolver. You haven’t heard anything like it.

Nice job with this reaction program! You definitely I find to be a quick study with Beatles songs, and this is not necessarily easy to do. John, Paul, and George all have different songwriting styles, but all loved obscure wordplay and teasing the listener to see if they could understand the lyrics. So the meanings in these songs is often not straightforward.

When this came out, my bestie and I would pull out the fireplace shovel guitar and a pair of butter knife drumsticks, then put on this 45 single, and play the hell outta both sides. I wound up writing a paperback. A really sucky one. Next one should be bettah. Play Paperback Writer!

@DJBilodeau 3 ай бұрын

A and B sides were well before your time, Philip. This comes in the days of records when, instead of buying an entire expensive album (called "33s"), for less money, you could buy 2 singles for less money (called "45s"). "Paperback Writer" and "Rain" are both singles not originally released on any albums. The Beatles would often do this right up until the end of their recording career as a band.

The last line John sings andvl you can't understand it, they ran the recording backward.

So, Philip, question for you-how do you square the Lennon in this video with the Lennon of "Woman" from Double Fantasy in 1980?

@garyfletcher844 3 ай бұрын

The first or second psychedelic song ever released.

Whenever you run into lyrics written by John, it becomes a bit more challenging to come to understand the meaning behind the lyrics. But, as I see here, Philip, looks like you are about to give it a try!
