@@Syfoll "this is what wikipedia says" - no, not wikipedia. Lol. When BB says "rhythm guitar", it means that is a acoustic guitar.

@@661ufos Chill dude, no need to throw insults around behind a screen. There are plenty of miss hit notes, and I'm positive that Paul himself would be fine with admitting it. Why get so worked up?

It's not why he was famous, you could probably learn to play his songs on piano in a year if you practice consistently. He was significant because of his songwriting ability, which is something you couldn't match in a year, or even many years, of writing.
I love what he did on Cry Baby Cry. Many drum parts he would tell Ringo what to play. As a matter of fact when Lennon was asked if Ringo was the best drummer, Lennon replied " He's not even the best drummer in the Beatles" I know Paul played drums on songs.
@@randydonaldson3823 Just to confirm that that quote never came from Lennon. It was a joke from a British comedian called Jasper Carrott, in the 80s. Lennon would never have said that about Ringo, whom he considered to be an excellent drummer.
I’m amazed to hear those hidden melody lines that blow my mind. Piano sound itself stands alone as one beautiful music. What a hidden spice in this song!
After all these years, I finally get to hear the last few notes of Paul's piano intro, which in the final mix are drowned out by Clapton's guitar entrance. Thanks for uploading!
John only plays acoustic guitar in it. Paul plays piano, organ and an overdubbed fender 6-string bass. The castanets heard in this "isolated piano" audio is from Ringo.
George Harrison: vocals, backing vocals, acoustic guitar, Hammond organ John Lennon: rhythm guitar Paul McCartney: backing vocals, bass guitar, piano, organ Ringo Starr: drums, tambourine, castanets Eric Clapton: lead guitar
This is from the final mix, doesn’t mean everybody who played in this wasn’t in one single take. It’s stems from The Beatles Rock Band and the quality shows it. They removed bass, drums, guitar and vocals to be their own track and this is a mix of what remains. Want to say this album was recorded using 8 tracks so it allowed much more room for diff instruments per tracks but you’ll still have “bleeding” going on IE vocals coming and going, lead guitar playing some notes etc. Sometimes they did the best they could to split instruments up and other times they left it alone much like the bass has the 12 string guitar attached to it because it’s just that awesome. Great to see these files still floating around on UA-cam, love listening to them. Now to find the hidden piano track for octopus’s garden which I think was mixed in the drums track lol
Yeah. Wish to hell it was more prominent. But then we get to discover these hidden gems and be astonished all over again at just how spectacular these guys were.
I love to listen to these great tracks to hear the breakdown of the instruments only the Beatles can have this impact in music where you just want more and more George’s song is great though the other Beatles did not help him Eric Clapton filled in perfectly
A great Harrisong that was improved by Pauls Piano and backing vocals. There are plenty of Macca songs that George improved with musical ideas as well that are uncredited. So it’s good to see Macca return the favor. And anyway, Macca was a team player overall. He knew if it improved a song it was yet another great Beatles track. They had a great Alchemy when it came to backing vocals and harmonies. Their voices all blended so well together on the harmonies. And on the backing vocals they sometimes stood out and sounded better than without it. For example, on this song you can clearly hear Pauls backing vocals on the Verse part : its been turning and surely be learning.
In this song Paul McCartney is mirroring the same guitar cord progression and when you listen to him playing the bass in is filling in the spaces and Ringo's iconic drumming is out of this world
I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping While my guitar gently weeps I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping Still my guitar gently weeps I don't know why nobody told you How to unfold your love I don't know how someone controlled you They bought and sold you I look at the world and I notice it's turning While my guitar gently weeps With every mistake we must surely be learning Still my guitar gently weeps I don't know how you were diverted You were perverted too I don't know how you were inverted No one alerted you I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping While my guitar gently weeps Look at you all Still my guitar gently weeps
Legends have their reasons... each single Beatle was fantastic in its own right, and the alchemy is even more awesome. This track goes to show how small imperfections make the Magic. Had they played it on a click track with Cubase or so editing, it would have TOTALLY ruined it...
I recorded a CD and one of the mistakes I made was allowing the sound man and co producer take out too many small flaws. I agree, you need to leave the human touches in the song. It makes it more real.
Although Paul and George did not have a writing partnership their musical partnership produced amazing legendary results. I wish Paul and John developed a writing partnership with George. But John was too self absorbed and Paul loved the spot light just a little too much to start elevating George to co equal status
@@snappyego908 George asked Paul to play something simple, yet Paul starts playing this incredibly melodic and perhaps even a bit busy bassline. Doesn't really sound like helping
I wish I could find decent sheet music or SOMETHING that I could use to figure out how to play this! This is such a beautiful and not-attended part of this song.
Per Wiki George Harrison - double-tracked lead vocals & backing vocals, acoustic guitar, Hammond organ John Lennon - electric guitar w/ tremolo Paul McCartney - backing vocals, piano, bass Ringo Starr - drums, tambourine, castanets Eric Clapton - lead
uh aint the last solo song played by Clapton, i dont think wiki are corrects. if you read the beatles bible. its clapton on both solo, Beatles never used a tremolo on this
Sometimes Wikipedia is wrong. I did a lot of digging and there is no electric rhythm tremolo guitar. Since the only other instrument was Organ, it must’ve been John on Organ
Guy in the back could well be Peter Asher,easier to tell if the photo was in colour as peter was a real red head . I remember reading that John called him Cilla.
I think Paul is playing this sophicated bass line. John quietly the simple part on piano maybe on organ too in the same time while george on rythmic guitar and Eric Clapton on solo . It seems to be like this to me ... BJ
I believe that there's two organ tracks. One is played by John in the backing track and is really low in the mix or completely wiped and only audible through other tracks. The second is by George which is more clearly heard.
1 L D You mean “Peter Asher”? He sort of looks like him. You know, Paul was his roommate and dated his sister Jane just around the time The Beatles were taking off. That’s when he wrote “Yesterday”. Look it up. Cheers 😊
Vito Casola : As you obviously don't know, this is one of George's most famous compositions and it's him singing the lead. What you're hearing is Paul doing the harmony.
ArkyMalarkey no.. in this isolated track you can hear Paul quietly singing the melody likely to keep his place aligned in the song and just for fun! He did the same thing humming the guitar solo in Something’s overdubs.
Filmatic Pictures : Sorry, but NO. Paul is singing the harmony: Look at the floor, and I see it needs sweeping C-D-E-C D-E-C D-E-F-E. Perhaps it's just a guide vocal, but it's definitely the harmony on top of George's lead vocal A-B-C-A B-C-A B-C-D-C.
ArkyMalarkey true! Good point. It’s such a simple melody line I forgot it doesn’t start on the third. I bet had Paul wrote it he would make his harmony the melody haha
@Cris Zapot For most accurate personnel on all Beatles recordings, check out Beatles Bible or Mark Lewisohn. His book, The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions is a great read and definitive. I'd rather believe someone who was actually there and documented it, as opposed to some idiot (not you) that just makes this shit up.

@@vsmicer yeah could be right..this clapping sound I think was added by ringo in the final stages, so would be mixed in somehwere and therefor cannot be mixed out of this track..Paul did a distorted bass overdub and George some organ chords with a hammond and probably some voice overdubs ?(that is, a day after the mostly live recordings of takes with Clapton..)

How do you know people are not complimenting the song and not the playing? Oh sorry ur in it to show how special you are. ‘Blood romance’ give me a break.
Anyway you slice it, this song is a steaming pile. No wonder John + Paul were constantly laughing at the songs George would bring to sessions. Such rubbish. Got to love the lines about the 'floor needing sweeping'. Yikes.
McCartney's so talented, especially considering piano is probably his third instrument talent wise (after bass and guitar).
Was John who played piano in this music, not Paul 😉
@@lucassales9485, no. John only plays Acoustic Guitars in this song.

An amazing song from George but would not be the same without that intro from Paul.
A return of the favor that George did when he came up with the intro for And I Love Her which that song would not have been the same without.
And in the bridge too.
Beautiful. You realise how much this piano part makes the arrangement.
I just wish the piano had been mixed a little more prominently in the final version - the opening is especially divine!!

Actually George is playing the acoustic guitar, he wanted to be able to sing and play so he's just doing the rhythm
@@jkbeatles yes, George plays Acoustic Guitars with John. I just reply to the description of the video, he said that John played the bass.

Nice John bonus near the middle. Interesting how they EQd the piano high to stay clear of the guitar and vocals.

How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps

Paul's contributions as sideman are aways so juicy and tasteful. Witness his gorgeous piano intros to this song and to "Sexy Sadie".

It’s honestly all about putting yourself out there. Paul wasn’t a virtuoso but what he had was an imagination, confidence and a great work ethic.
The beautiful music. 😎
This needs more castenets.
You can barely hear the piano in the final mix except for the intro of course
I think the bass part was double-tracked using the Fender VI to create the "tick-tack" effect.
So beautiful and thrilling! One of the greatest piano tracks ever. It should be louder on the mix!
It's interesting to hear Ringo playing triplets on his high hat at various parts in the song.
Just perfect. Thank you!
Are those castanets I keep hearing in the verses? They're a little slice of Heaven, whatever they are. I want more.
the piano part throughout i never really noticed it
Paul's backing vocals, audible, is also masterpiece.
Love the piano in the middle 8s
Hey, who the heck is playing the Fender bass behind Paul in this pic?
Looks like Peter Asher to me?
I was thinking the same thing.
Billy Shears.
Stephen Brain : You are correct sir , tis thee
The real Paul, ressurected.

Check out T Manni on UA-cam, he shows how to play the exact notes Paul plays using an overhead camera. Enjoy!
Nice pun
