A couple of years ago I did a video of Beatles 'Top 10' guitar riffs, but quickly realised that 10 wasn't enough! While The Beatles are often celebrated for writing some of the greatest pop songs and albums of all time, their guitar work is usually overlooked. Here is a brand new video of Top 20 Beatles riffs.

he helped george with a lot of riffs. Not to take ANY credit away from George but in some written biographys Clapton is named as a joint part of the creative process that aided George to write some of the Beatle's hits. I didn't mean to say he played these riffs himself. I amended my original comment. @@hollycrawford6054

Always makes me laugh when I hear people say this. George was an underrated lead guitarist, Ringo was an underrated drummer, Paul was an underrated bass player, John was an underrated ballad writer etc etc etc. Underrated by whom exactly? They were/are The Beatles - they couldn’t be more rated and praised if they tried. They changed, like actually changed, music at the time and will continue to do so forever. To say one of them, any of them, was underrated is such an ‘internet’ thing to say and really unfounded.

That's the thing about The Beatles - they weren't just interchangeable. They brought out the best in each other and made each other better. Remove just one of those elements, and it just becomes a "different" song. They each made some amazing music in their solo careers, but they never really topped what they accomplished as a unit.

His lead playing was usually more rough and (intentionally) sloppy, but good, and the solos on "Get Back" show he could be clean and fluid when he wanted to. Paul was easily the best of the three technically at guitar or any other instrument.

@bouwebear597
@bouwebear597 3 жыл бұрын
that's probably (at least initially) because they didn't know what a time "signature" was (and therefore were not constrained to any of them). The only "signatures" they knew were their own when they were signing autographs. Timing, along with chording (at least in the beginning) was just on pure collective instinct. Hence they could say to Ringo, "it goes bum-ba-da da-bum-bum, can you make that fit?" They cook it up with Ringo stirring the pot and at some point George Martin tells them what a time signature is. Ignorance of formal nomenclature means being free of any limitations. You naturally think outside the box because you didn't know you were supposed to be in a box, or that you were in one in the first place. That's how Lennon wrote Strawberry Field: two different bits in different time signatures and he just threw it to Producer George, who sped up or slowed down one of the tapes and joined them together.

Top class work yet again, Bloxsy. Sneaking in some relatively obscure little gems (if there even is such as a thing with the Beatles) like Dig a Pony, Hey Bulldog and I Want to Tell You typifies what you’re about with these videos - drawing attention to little oft-overlooked bars of gold instead of going for the same old riffs done a million times over. Keep up the good work, lad 👏🏼

I Want You (She's So Heavy) might be the greatest Beatles riff ever, especially on the original recording with it going for like 3 minutes and that white noise machine fading in and out, then a cut and boom, end of side 1

Great selection. Pleased to see that you didn't merely go for the obvious. The variety of styles and moods only goes to show just how good the Beatles were. Listening to this, it has now occurred to me that John Lennon and George Harrison anticipated the sludgy doom-riffing of Black Sabbath with "I Want You (She's So Heavy)".

I'm getting a bunch of intros together to play at a family party; it'll be sort of a charades game set to music; guess the song and artist, by the intro. All styles of music, but the Beatles have so many songs with distinctive intros, I'm using several of them. Thanks! Your video helped, and saved me time. Great job!
