  • Thank you to our patron Laura A for this wonderful choice for Beatles Sunday. I've been meaning to get to "Help!" because I own it and this was the perfect chance to hear something from it. I loved the video and seeing the lads just lounging about, killing it like usual. Fantastic song. An earworm for sure...

" the he said "Anyway, We actually thank them for being our first openner band in the USA"

      Haha. I saw the Rolling Stones just before they or the Beatles hit ‘Big’.
      They closed the first half for Gerry and the Pacemakers concert at Fairfield Hall, Croydon. G&PM’s first record (How Do You Do It?) had just gone straight to No.1 The Beatles had recorded that song but turned it down as a first release, opting for Love Me Do which only reached No.17 in the UK charts.
      The Stones were playing US rhythm and blues numbers back then, way before they developed their own style and before the time John Lennon advised Mick Jagger how to write songs.

I had so many singles and just a few albums because of finances as a kid in the 60s. I will always treasure The Beatles as my favorite band of all time even though I love music from 7 decades.

    Thoughtful and interesting reaction. Lee, you've got to check out some history about them going up and their evolution as a band even in those early days. It's actually a fascinating story.
    They all came from Liverpool, which at the time anyway was mostly really blue collar, and it was a "rough and tumble" port shipping town. If nothing else, think about the environments they played in and how much age difference matters at that age. They started playing together in junior high, John and Paul, in a band called the Quarrymen. John was the oldest and the leader, and thankfully for them, could be a bit of a bully when defending them or just in general if he felt something really unfair was happening.
    George was the baby of the bunch and came from the poorest family, and he wanted to play guitar from early on but his family couldn't afford a guitar, so his dad made him one out of a cigar box. He was also known as pretty scrappy when it came to street fights, which is really amazing when you think about them in later life.
    Pete Best was their original drummer, but never really quite fit in, and just the story alone of how they ever even came to move to Berlin in Germany to play there is amazing, which is where they were already pretty seasoned from playing hardcore places like the Cavern in Liverpool, but by the time they were playing at the Star Club and other clubs in Hamburg, and even became the house band at one such club, with a ton of fantastic stories from that experience, that's when they got really hard and right and really good. And that's when they picked up Ringo to replace Pete Best. They were called the Silver Beatles at the time, but Ringo was a highly sought-after drummer in the thriving scene there.
    He was already playing for a band that was more popular than the Silver Beatles, and there was another popular band that was actively recruiting him, but then the Beatles nabbed him, and history changed.

    The different drumming patterns through the song were fab. Some other drummer might have done the same thing all the way through, but Richie mixed it up and kept you guessing. Even the little roll at that one pause he didn't keep the same, and reduced it to a single snare hit the last time. Ringo is such a great song drummer.

    You should review "We Can Work it Out" which was one of John and Paul's finest collaborations: Paul wrote the verses and chorus, and John added a second chorus in a completely different (waltz) time. I believe the video accompanying "We Can Work It Out" was filmed the same day as the "Ticket to Ride" video you reviewed.

    "Ticket to Ride" is a fun pun. Ryde, a town on the British island of Wight, south coast - have to usually take a boat there. (I took a Hydrofoil over to Isle of Wight in 1987) The Beatles, to switch things up used different writing methods - people they knew, music when awaking from sleep, newspaper articles, a joke. So, she got a ticket to the Isle of Wight,...and she don't care ;)

Their songwriting was just starting to turn into major art, and they were all silly stoned filming this. Within a few months, while at a dinner at George's house with his wife Patti and John's wife Cynthia, George's dentist will slip LSD into their tea or coffee, starting the next wave of creativity in the worlds best band.

    Beatlemania was in full swing, their lives were a continual schedule of interviews, performances and studio sessions. They travelled the world but mostly only saw it from car, plane and hotel windows, unable to go out on the street for fear of being mobbed. Lennon summed it up on the song 'HELP!' . Their talent, camaraderie, dry humour, and drug use helped them survive what would have simply crushed other bands.

    One of the absolute best examples of Lennon-McCartney harmonies is on their 1964 song, 'I Don't Want to Spoil the Party'. Even though I grew up listening to their songs for +55 years and intimately know all of their voices and the nuances between each, I never realize how finely crafted the singing was on this song until about 10 years ago. With the exception of the occasional solo line sung by Lennon, both Lennon-McCartney sing together throughout the entire song. What makes it so enjoyable is that they keep exchanging lead vocal parts.
    In the 1st, 2nd, and 4th lines, Lennon sings lead and McCartney sings lower harmony. For the 3rd line, Lennon sings solo. This vocal format is then repeated. After that, they seamlessly pull off a vocal switch, whereas for the next four lines, McCartney takes over the lead and Lennon sings the lower harmony.
    To me, this is yet another example of their brilliance. Being that their vocal ranges mesh together so perfectly, it is often quite difficult to distinguish one from the other. This holds true into their solo careers. There are a few Lennon songs where I swear it sounds like McCartney is singing and vice versa. Since Day 1, their vocal talents were an irresistible feature that made them stand tall when compared to all others.
    Best wishes to your adventures with The Beatles.

    They're all from Liverpool, Lee. Paul and John grew up about a mile apart, separated by a golf course. Paul met John for the first time at a church summer fete in 1957. Paul and George went to the same secondary school in Liverpool and although in different years Paul and George used the same bus route into town. Ringo was from a more working class district but also in south Liverpool. He met the other three in Hamburg in 1960 when he was the drummer with another Liverpool group.

It wasn't 'till 1979 when Paul released a live version of his song "coming up" that upon hearing, John said, "Well I got to get in the studio. Paul's just done something good." The old competitive rivalry was still there.

    Btw, anyone who loves this sound, I'd urge to listen to anything on the Bangles' first major album, All Over The Place. It may be the most Beatlesy album since the Beatles. Folks who only know the Bangles from the novelty hit Walk Like An Egyptian or the mushy Eternal Flame, that album will be a revelation. If you just want to try a sampler from it, try Dover Beach or Hero Takes A Fall.

    It is very satisfying to watch a young man like yourself walk through the epic era of "THE BEATLES" I was blessed to live it, being 13 years old in '64 when "Hard Days Night" the movie came out. Our theater only cost $1 for showing, I saw it 12 times, and still love watching it. Only a handful of people ever effected life in the world as much as the Beatles, especially John Lennon, the greats rock voice of all time, IMHO. Don't know if you have done it already, but Yer Blues is an epic Lennon song, you should check out the THE DIRTY MAC version ( John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards and Mitch Mitchell on drums).

    "Help" was a scripted movie in the style of the Marx Brothers/Three Stooges doing a James Bond storyline. Best joke that I can remember: George stops by to watch Ringo cooking a big pot of soup. Suddenly Ringo starts pulling all sorts of items out of the soup -- a pair of glasses, a watch, this that and the other -- when Ringo pulls a ticket out of the soup, George quips, "Must be a season ticket."

    In 1965 - this song grew music 10 years ahead. It matured rock. Ringo's thumping drum style would later go on to influence heavy metal drumming. Lennon throaty rhythm guitar, and the "mood" could arguably make it the first ever Power Ballad in rock history. And yes those harmonies were part of the growth.

    The Beatles were a cultural phenomenon not just for their music, but the whole package: the haircuts, the sleek modern suits (and later fashion statements), the Liverpudlian accents, the cheeky sense of humor, the thoughtful lyrics...I could go on. You should listen to some of their interviews to get an idea of how funny they were. Or watch one of their movies-"Helps!" or "A Hard Day's Night"-or the Peter Jackson documentary "Get Back," which gives you 9+ hours of watching their creative process as they record the tracks for the "Let It Be" album.

    Lee, put your headphones on and crank A Ticket to Ride and really listen to Ringo's playing. Besides the cool, Beach Boys-esque rhythm for the verses, he does these fills on the transitions from the Bridge back to the verse and then during the chorus' that are sweet. He switches them up each time and he comes up with really tastey patterns and accents!

      @@pjg58x Producers took their Percentage off the "Front End" while the artists pay all expenses, the limos, hotels, travel, ..... everything. A good example is Bill Wyman from the Stones. From when they signed their first record contract, until they finally fired their producer around 1970, Bill, who was older and had a wife and family to support, kept track of actual payments he received, and it amounted to about $30,000! The house he lived in, the cars he drove, everything was a rental , charged against his potential earnings. It became a cliche, that New Bands with #1 Hits , after their first album and tour would owe the Record Companies so much they would be forced to give up their publishing rights. Even if they had a great follow up 2nd or 3rd album recorded that could potentially lift them out of debt, the producers would delay releasing the album, or not give it the marketing support that it needed to climb the charts
