  • The Beatles performing “Revolution.”
    “When you talk about destruction, don’t you know that you can count me out"
    “I did the slow version and I wanted it out as a single: as a statement of The Beatles’ position on Vietnam and The Beatles’ position on revolution. For years, on The Beatles’ tours, Brian Epstein had stopped us from saying anything about Vietnam or the war.” - John Lennon.
    “Plugging directly into the Abbey Road desk and pushing the needles into the red achieved the fuzz-guitar sound. According to George Martin “We got into distortion on that, which we had a lot of complaints from the technical people about. But that was the idea: it was John’s song and the idea was to push it right to the limit. Well, we went to the limit and beyond.”
    “Revolution" was directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg, and filmed on the 4th September 1968 at Twickenham Film Studios.
    “Don’t you know it’s gonna be all right”

    Lennon’s opening guitar riff into McCartneys scream is perfect

      I was just thinking about that riff and it dawned on me that I think I've heard a similar riff or effect in the music of Chuck Berry. And now I'm wondering if I can figure out what Chuck Berry song we would be talking about.

    • @DanielBartholomew1
      @DanielBartholomew1 5 років тому +38

      I just went and did a quick listen to the openings of "Johnny B. Goode" and "Roll Over Beethoven" - there isn't as much distortion on Berry's guitar - but the opening chords on those songs are still a very similar call to attention. I suspect John is lifting a chord from a Chuck Berry song and then distorting the hell out of it to create an even more powerful effect.

      @AbeFroman-zx5hs their music is not a technical competition. Ringo and Keith Moon were friends in the first place, it's very unlikely that Keith Moon didn't admire Ringo and still was friends with him. Ringo created musical arrangements that no other drummer would have imagined, doesn't matter if it's a virtuoso or not

I would guess that he used it as tribute, as they say. Musicians take riffs from one another all the time. I must say that it works perfectly in this Beatles song.

      My personal view is that George was somewhat limited with the songwriting. Probably by Paul & John. Then, in 1970, he releases a triple studio album, "All Things Must Pass". When's the last time an artist released a triple studio album? George obviously had many songs written while with The Beatles...

Even in Cream, I love Baker's drums, Bruce's bass, vocals and songwriting but the guitar playing (and guitar arrangements) bore me senseless. But more than being bored, I actively dislike virtually every musical choice he makes. I'm particularly grouchy about "While My Guitar..." because firstly, I think it's the worst guitar solo on any Beatles track ever and secondly, after that time, it seemed that Harrison became very influenced by Clapton's high widdle-diddle 'bluesy' soloing. As you can imagine, this is a VERY minority view ;) but there it is.

      To be fair, it was likely considered a "double A side" single by EMI and the Beatles. But still, good point. So many examples in their singles. Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields, Paperback Writer and Rain. So much great material that even their B sides were A sides in a lot of cases.
