    Your ear for unpicking music is incredible. I've certainly heard this played by others online and it's incorrect. This is the actual way it's played on the album.

    Did anyone even notice that this guy is musically ambidextrous? On another Lennon guitar lesson, he played it right handed, like John. On the bass, he is teaching Paul's part left handed, like Paul! Nice!!!!

    • @inlandbott
      @inlandbott Рік тому +1

      i noticed that, too. if fact, i thought maybe he had just flipped this video horizontally to make it look left handed for effect. the i saw the rick logo on the headstock. i,d be curious to know if he can play guitar left handed as well. playing individual notes is one thing, chords are a whole different ball game:)

I've learned how to sing harmonies without losing the key of the line I'm singing thanks to your work. And of course, I love The Beatles even more every time you show us these kind of hidden gems. I'm currently studying Musical Arts, and you are one of the people who has made me love music even more. Grazie, maestro!

    Fantastic work, Galeazzo! ... and even though I guess McCartney never spent a jiff worrying about these details (his ears probably just told him his sound was good), they nonetheless make a huge difference, especially in pop music, whose greatest wealth (on my humble opinion) is the incredible variety of timbres and sounds it can offer to its fans. A much richer palette compared to those of Classical Music or Jazz (Orchestras, alas, sound very much the same...). My music is Jazz but I happily subscribed to your channel, because it seems to me (by far) the finest Musical channel from our Country. ... and because I like the Beatles, of course 😊. A great week to you and to everybody 😊.

    • @richsackett3423

      Your guess is incorrect. A player of Paul's caliber works out various solutions during the making of an album.

    • @SmogandBlack
      @SmogandBlack Рік тому +1

      @@richsackett3423 I don’t know where you get this from, Rich… I work a lot on my playing (I play the Piano): sometimes even days on a same few bars, trying to make my part sound as if I were the pianist I’d like it to be. And then I watch ‘Get Back’ and I see it takes two days - two and a half top - to this guy to write a song: an epic song like ‘Let it Be’ or ‘Get Back’: with melody, chords, lyrics, arrangement… everything. And then he gets back to smoking, joking and chilling with his pals. Or I remember in Scorsese’s movie when Eric Clapton says that they recorded ‘While my Guitar gently Weeps’ in an afternoon and that he was amazed by McCartney 'playing the Piano, singing harmonies', etc… so I’m sure that he had many possible solutions in his mind but at the same time he gave me the impression to be pretty confident about the way he sounded… a nice day to you and to everybody, Enrico 😊.

    Great observations on The Beatles music. Since it first came out, I must have listened to it hundreds of times. Without thinking about it, or analysing, mistakes stand out like a ‘sore thumb.’ It’s lovely to hear you dissect the playing, and show us what they did. Like many other fans, I find it incredible that The Beatles had amassed a respectable body of work, all before they were thirty. Wow ! The talent in that band was unbelievable. As we all hung on every new offering, we knew they were ‘geniuses.’ The passage of time just showed me the measure of their genius. I recall my father and uncles tearing it down, telling me to ‘get some proper music on.’ Further questioning revealed that ‘proper music,’ was something like Bing Crosby or Vera Lynne. Yuk! Young people today can’t imagine the magnitude of the rift between us back then. Although the ‘generation gap’ may eventually eclipsed by all this with their ‘woke, preferred pronouns and thirty or so different genders that are now available to us.’ I know we shocked our parents with the ‘sixties,’ but was it really as bad as all this new stuff? Perhaps the very question labels me as old, uncool or whatever! At least I don’t name call them, or racially slur them. In fact, I think I’m quite tolerant and open minded. And I’ve never uttered the words, ‘nothing a stint in The Army wouldn’t cure, or get a proper hair cut.’ Nor do I criticise their clothes. We were all young rebels once!

    You either have the most incredible ear I have ever seen or you listen to this music at very slow motion I think it's just genius musical ability even your harmonies that you do by yourself apart I can't tell but put together it's pure perfection my late brother was a musician for 60 years he read music could tell notes by ear and play guitare so well that he was tired of it and he taught himself to play drums he picked that up fairly quick but as he grew older he switched to jazz he took lessons from one of the best jazz drummers in Boston a Berkeley professor he told him just practice your timing and send me video's I'll tell you what to work on and he was quite impressed so where the members of his band they all thought he went to berkly music school to like then even though they never made a living at music he actually was and air conditioning refrigeration tec.who was tired of being dirty so he went back to school nights and weekends and got his bachelor's then his masters his company offered him the managers position the regular guy wanted to go back to repairs and didn't want to learn computers so he got a good raise company car and he new enough about the trade he new witch guy to send where he retired three years ago but his band was making decent money he had back up guitarists bass players keyboard players but he stuck with the best he learned to sail from a book and will he was as close to a genius I ever met then two weeks ago he passed he was in good shape no smoking no drinking or drugs his second marriage was comming up on 23 years a great man and I have been trying to learn bass for 40 years and just don't have that talent keep making these there incredible and live every day like it could be your last hope I didn't depress you that was not my intent thanks I love the beatles

      I play an old maple neck Fender P bass. I change strings about once every four years, just standard flat wounds that sound as dead as a door nail. Forgot to mention. I had all the frets removed forty years ago. Long story . I never even thought of electric bass strings for a fretless . I’ll have to look into it. G.F. is getting the closest sound to Paul’s Rick 4001 I’ve ever heard.

    Yeah the hammer on on the G fixed it for me thanks. There was just something missing on the slide on the back end, just sounded weak and tinny for me but that hammer on then slide gets the feel of that riff for me. I do wonder if that "caress" you picked up on is just bad string muting and it ended up sounding good because I have done that a few times in other songs where I kind of fail upwards in muting and it gives a bit more of a dynamic feel for it when its repeatable.

  • @rome8180
    @rome8180 Рік тому +3

    I'd like to see you cover the outro of the song. I'm talking about the part where it stays on the D chord and John sings "Come Together" over and over. I've heard the isolated bass, and even though it's all just one note, Paul is doing some really interesting quick slides. Or maybe they're bends or hammer ons. It sounds like he's playing a super quick C# over and over right before the D. Except it sounds sharper than a C#, just flat of a D. I can't exactly tell how he makes the sound, so I'd love to hear your interpretation of it.

    • @kennet7837
      @kennet7837 Рік тому

      It's hammer-ons, then he gradually transitions into picking every note. He does some slide-ups to the 12th fret at the fade-out.

  • @aquamarine99911
    @aquamarine99911 Рік тому

    Hah, so much easier to learn these things than when I started over 30 years ago. But from listening to the isolated bass track, I really thought Paul hits the high F with his pinkie on the 15th fret (D string) when he's playing the main Dm riff. I get a fatter tone with that note than on the G string.
    BTW, the way my hands move there is similar to how I play his fast part in Taxman. There's a lot of interesting stuff for you to cover in Taxman, starting with the fact that Paul plays two quick 16th notes on the D octave. A lot of players miss that!
