John would criticize the medley saying it was "tossed together" and "junk". Personally, I love it. It may have started as a hodgepodge of unfinished songs, but IMHO, it ended up a masterpiece.

@american_cosmic 3 жыл бұрын

That's how great the Beatles were. John apparently considered it literal album filler... just something to put down so as to have enough songs to put out an album. And we consider it a masterpiece. That's how fucking good the Beatles were and are.

For me Her Majesty takes away from the magic or brilliance of the medley. I know it's separate but it's tacked on and IMHO should have been left off.

@sjduges67 3 жыл бұрын

Her Majesty was between Mean Mr. Mustard and Polythene Pam on the British Abbey Road. It fits there, making “The End” truly the end of the album. The original lineup is on the 50th Anniversary Edition.

It's funny that as much as John embraced experimentation during the Revolver/Sgt. Pepper days he would dismiss the medley instead of listening to it as its own thing. Experimentation isn't just playing tape backwards.

Take heart look up, your life’s only begun. -unknown- I’m closing in on 70 and I have done as you are doing. With acting, singing, playing and dancing. It all began with seeing the Beatles live in Southern California and hasn’t stopped yet. Through living out of my car to playing a tour in Europe crazy crazy life and times. And at my age I still play every weekend. My word of advice, Don’t give up.

My opinion on johns comments in the 70’s is to usually just ignore them. He was kinda bitter and upset and maybe lashing out a bit. Just around the time of his death, he was coming out of this and I believe that in the 80’s and 90’s he would have walked back many of these statements.

@demi2931 Жыл бұрын

Definitely, although it's worth noting that as much of the criticisms he made in those days was about himself as it was directed at the others. Perhaps his self criticism was a way of expressing his regret at being complicit in the downfall of the Beatles, or strategically said to make it seem like he wasn't just doing a hit job? Hard to say...

I can only imagine that if he saw the financial stability that they have had (his family) since his passing had he still been here he would have come around. Maybe not on performing them because that was always one of his fears whether that he didn't want to be an old man playing the same old tunes but just a general appreciation.

Abbey Road was the last of the best. Many people were upset when the Beatles disbanded and went their separate ways. I was not. I was thirteen when I first heard them on their second album, Meet the Beatles in December, 1963. Because of their influence, I became a musician, playing studio gigs and on the road with many groups. What they accomplished in six years will never be equalled. A diversity of creative material unmatched and a legacy untouchable.

Maybe it's comforting to know that someone who looks like he has all his shit together, with his amazing videos and successful KZfaq channel, is really just like me, still struggle and trying to make something of himself on this platform and in this world. I had a rough night yesterday and this really helped me feel better, so thank you. I really mean that. And whatever your end goal is, just know that you and your team have done some AMAZING things with this channel already. Not saying you should get complacent, but just letting you know that what you do here is beautiful, it's art, and it's meaningful to me and at least 100,000 other individuals. So don't be too hard on yourself. I know I am guilty of that more than I should be. Also your music rocks, I added Cannonball Express to my "Let's go on a trip (Drugs not road)" playlist on Spotify. Right next to the great psychedelic songs of the Fab Four, Pink Floyd, and more ;)

John was all about the single track, so I think he was sincere in his opinion of not liking the medley. He viewed it as a patchwork quilt of bits and pieces. I believe John genuinely did not like side 2 of Abbey Road. Paul didn’t like John’s “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” on side 1, but George and Ringo loved it.
