I was 10 when the Beatles played the EdSullivan show. People listen to all this music now completely out of context. But living through it all from mono recordings to the advent of stereo, the progression and evolution of the music.. in chronological order is what is missing in all these reviewers…
It makes me really wish there were performances of so many of their songs that we never got to see live. Imagine the magic that they achieved in their 'Abbey Road' studio tracks being played live by them.
Great reaction! Your insightful appreciation earned my subscription. The Beatles not only heralded in a whole new era of music, but they always challenged their creative limits to explore new sounds. You often hear it said of the Beatles, “No two songs sound the same!” That became particularly evident as their music making evolved. Never satisfied with establishing a brand sound, unlike the best of well-loved bands. Yeah, I’m one of those who believes the Beatles will occupy an important place in music history. ❤
I agree. I love the musical evolution of the Stones. But the Beatles remains as the band that broke glass ceilings. Even Jagger acknowledges the path the Beatles forged for those who followed. Classy of him.
This is indeed the end of side 1 of the album. And what's amazing is that when you flip the album over you go from this, which for want of a better word, is the heaviest and darkest sounding of Beatles songs, to "Here Comes the Sun," which is one of their lightest and most positive songs.
Hey Wayne! The Beatles!! Perhaps the greatest band of all time. That's saying a lot knowing how much I love YES. The Beatles will still be of importance 200 years from now!!👍😎
Great reaction! The Beatles are the best. If you knew all of their albums like I do, they'd likely be your number one favorite band like they have been for me since 1964.
It's important to associate The Beatles with their era. This was the final album in 1969. Most bands establish an identity and that's it. Even if they stay together decades, they are still the same band with their identifiable sound. With The Beatles, aside from their early albums, you never knew what you were going to get. And they were always THE band of their era. That's an important fact that, 50-60 years later, is nearly impossible to appreciate for those who didn't live through those years.
Flip of the coin between Abbey Road and Dark Side of the Moon for best album ever for me, this song was a shocker to all of us on first listen, the ending jam will put you in a trance and influenced all heavy music coming after. Still the best after 60+ years, you can't go wrong with anything from this great album, enjoy! 🎵🎤🎸🎤🎸🎹🎶
My favorite Beatles song! It's psychedelic and heavy. I'm surprised that you didn't mention the repeating power chords in the outro. Could be the first "metal" sounding guitar ever recorded. I'm talking the heavy riff, not the melodic lines over the top. It sounds even like proto doom metal (at the end). But yes, Paul's bass adds a lot too, and John's passionate singing.
The heavy r&b sound and feel in this song was enhanced by organist Billy Preston. Early in his career he was in Little Richard's band, and that was around the time he met and became friends with The Beatles. He also did sessions with Little Richard, Sam Cooke and Jimi Hendrix, before joining Ray Charles' band. Later, at George's request, Preston visited the Beatles at Abbey Road Studios during the Get Back sessions that became the Let It Be album, and also played with them here on the Abbey Road album. He was the only non-Beatle musician ever to have been officially credited on any of their recordings.
Glad you enjoyed this. Taken from the final album they recorded. One thing that always completely mystifies me about The Beatles is the fact that at the time they finished the recording of Abbey Road not one of them had attained the age of 30! They really have no competition.
I just left a long message on your helter skelter video. Yeah Paul kills it here and Ringo as always is perfect. Every single song. Ringo is perfect. He’s amazing. Best rock drummer. Everyone who holds their sticks double fisted is copying him. Very few rock drummers kept to the old style after Ringo. Paul hated the white noise on the ending and some think John did it just to annoy him. This was the last song all 4 worked on together at the same time.
The actual take was 8m08s, and just sort of fell apart in the last 20 seconds or so. They knew they'd nailed it. The abrupt ending worked so much better for the LP than a typical fade-out would have.
This was not one of my favorite Beatles tracks when it appeared BUT it has grown...and grown on me over the years. The Beatles are just cool as hell. Loved your reaction.
According to the Wikipedia page, both John and George played lead guitars, with no mention of rhythm guitars. The parts that could be considered a lead guitar part or a solo, were just the melody already sung by John. And since George was the primary lead guitarist during the course of the band's existence, it was probably him, although at various times, George, John, and Paul each played guitar leads/solos. One example was the cut on side 2 called "The End". It includes Ringo's only drum solo as a Beatle, and has a section where George, John, and Paul trade guitar solos back & forth. And also, the last song they just released last year, "Now and Then", includes a guitar solo by Paul, which he played in George's style, to honor his bandmate.
Paul's bass playing is outstanding on this piece! And all 5 of them could really settle into those marvelous instrumental grooves: midway, and then that amazing outro. Such versatile musicians!
This was all John Lennon, who was just playing with repeating the same lyrics over and over again! It was also his idea to have the white noise at the end. John did play lead and came up with the riff. I would say this song inspired the whole Prog Rock thing in the 1970's.
Nah. Not prog rock, not proto-punk, not heavy metal. Just the Beatles doing what they did best. It's a shame they couldn't have dealt with their issues like the Stones did -- side and solo projects as needed, then occasionally coming back together -- but there you go.
My opinion time: Best Early Beatles - I Saw Her Standing There, I Should Had Known Better, Day Tripper, In My Life. Best Middle/Psychedelic Beatles - Rain, Tomorrow Never Knows, Strawberry Fields, I Am the Walrus. Best Later/Hard Rockin' Beatles - Hey Bulldog, Happiness is a Warm Gun, Helter Skelter, Yer Blues, Don't Let Me Down, I Want You (She's So Heavy), I Got a Feeling. Classic/Best Beatles - Hey Jude, Revolution, Two of Us, Let it Be, Come Together. Of course, there is a lot of overlap.
Literally the last song completed on the last album they ever recorded. John mixed this and George Martin on the final Beatles album he produced, being uninterested in Let It Be, the last album they put out, added the white noise effect that so powerfully drove you, as you said so well, into a state of madness by the end. John and Martin chose the abrupt end instead of a fade out because it was symbolic of how the fans would feel about the abrupt breakup of the Beatles. Pure genius from a band whose greatness will never be achieved by anyone ever.
@@gettinhungrig8806 Maybe it's just an wrong assumption on my part. I mean Martin was their producer so I just put it out like it's a fact which is dumb lol. It makes sense that it was John's idea since he wasn't in the mood to colab with anyone in the last few years. But the point's still the same, that the blank noise kept building to give u a sense of dread, maybe reflecting John's own dread if you wanna call it that at working with the band, and the sudden ending was just John saying I don't give a s**t anymore I want this end already lol!
@@gettinhungrig8806 it's just fun to me analyzing Beatles stuff cause their process and the dynamics in the band, etc. The only other band I do the same thing with is Floyd cause they're stuff is so complex. I find it interesting when a music composition stimulates the brain cells, that's why the Beatles and Floyd are one and two in my favorite bands ever.
Every person who first heard this song on their 4 or 8 track tape player, jumped up and removed the tape cartridge at the end of this song because they thought the tape was being eaten.😂
On the vinyl album, this track is the last one on Side 1. The unexpected end had more of an impact on LP than on CD or digital as "Here Comes The Sun" did not immediately play after this song ended on LP. I always thought the abrupt end indicated that the singer's madness had finally caused him to snap after endless obsessing.
This was the first song started but last finished during the recording of their album Abbey Road. Abbey Road, although not their last released as a band, was the last one that they recorded. And when they gathered together in August 1969 to mix this song, it was the very last time that all 4 of them were in the studio together.
You’re right. It was an album side closer - it was the end of side one. The juxtaposition between that ending and the beginning of Side 2 - Here Comes The Sun - is incredible.
John added the white noise at the end of the song. Paul didn't like what it was doing to the melody, but John was right all along. Also, John randomly picked a place to cut it off; that was his artistic choice, not any constraints with time allotted on a vinal album. Abby Road is a masterpiece. The intersection in London where they crossed the street still attracts thousands of tourists each year to replicate the Beatles walking across the road. You also need to review the B - side of the album.
The lyrics were quite basic to be sure, but very succinct. But just to add a bit of context to it, the word "heavy" in late 1960's slang, meant something important, something that required some serious thought, something very meaningful. In fact, that meaning for the word, was probably influenced by this very song. John essentially wrote this about Yoko, and was indicating her importance in his life. The way I interpreted it, was that the first half of the title was John speaking directly to Yoko, and the parenthetical part, John telling others how he felt about her.
This was the last real studio album produced properly by George Martin, and it was great. "Let It Be" was started before this and finished after this, and was not well produced at all. You have to hear the whole medley thing on side two of "Abbey Road". Cheers!
Although Martin was there most of the sessions the "production" was done by the band and Glynn John's Phil Spector didn't do his part until early 1970 The first single of Get Back. Don't let me down listed the producer as George Marti
@seanjockel43 That's drilling down a little more. "Let It Be" was far from my favorite, although it did have a few good moments like "Get Back" and "Across the Universe". George's contributions on that were dismal.
I notice the Iron Maiden t-shirt, so I suppose you now they covered the Beatle's song Helter Skelter. Only so much room on a record, they took it to the end.
If you listen to side two of Abbey Road make sure you listen to the medley from You Never Give Me Your Money to the final track The End as one complete piece. Awesome experience.
Progenitors of (among other things) noise rock? It ends side A. In the old days the jolt of the noise and the abrupt ending had a little time to wear off as we flipped the lp over. Now the digital releases all run directly into Here Comes the Sun, which is jarring in its own rite.
No. But interestingly enough, there IS a messy taped (5m30s, Apple, late Jan 1969?) rehearsal where Paul DOES sing sloppy lead, and a mostly serious acetate (4m44s, maybe Trident sessions) where he does a better job. FWIW, the acetate version is often disputed (an "outfake") because no physical acetate has ever surfaced, but it sure sounds like Paul to these ears. I could be wrong, though.
I wish I could hear the Beatles for the first time again.
Yeah but I wouldn’t want to be 13 again!
Yeah, and with today's quality
Doc Brown loaned me his DeLorean for the weekend, but you'll have to ride shotgun.
I can't remember hearing the Beatles for the first time, since I was 2 or 3.
I was 10 when the Beatles played the EdSullivan show. People listen to all this music now completely out of context. But living through it all from mono recordings to the advent of stereo, the progression and evolution of the music.. in chronological order is what is missing in all these reviewers…
I’m always in awe of Ringo’s perfect match to the song , and the continual increase in intensity with cymbals and riffs - it’s simply magical.
It makes me really wish there were performances of so many of their songs that we never got to see live. Imagine the magic that they achieved in their 'Abbey Road' studio tracks being played live by them.

Proving once again the Beatles could do anything. Even a Doom Metal loop.
And prog, because he is singing about a trip of heroin!
@@wpreite reddit nonsense. False.
That final section with like white noise underneath sounds like an unstoppable Tsunami of sound right up to the moment it stops!
I think that was from an early Moog .... the first in England.
It sounds like a rapidly expanding apocalyptic shockwave after the impact of a killer asteroid
White noise and the abrupt ending are great!
this is definitely one of my all-time faves from the Fab Four! It's strange, groovy, and wonderfully weird in great ways ... love it! 😉
John said he wanted the sound of air

There's an alternate take on UA-cam where someone tells the Beatles that a neighbor is complaining because they're making too much noise. Funny stuff.
Hey Wayne! The Beatles!! Perhaps the greatest band of all time. That's saying a lot knowing how much I love YES. The Beatles will still be of importance 200 years from now!!👍😎

the 5th Beatle Billy Preston - Hammond organ.
Surprised he wasn't credited
He wasn’t the 5th Beatle
@johnp515 I know that but when the Get Back single was issued it said him name
If there HAD been a 5th Beatle, it would have been George Martin. But there were only four.

Wow this was a nice reaction to a song - and a band - I love
This masterpiece was made 55 years ago.
Please react to Beatles - I've got a feeling (live on rooftop)
O that is my very favourite live Paul.
There will NEVER be anyone close to this band. They deserve all the accolades they’ve received over the past sixty years …
It's like the first ever "Dark Metal" Sound in the 60's
Agreed. People think the Beatles are overrated, which is ridiculous.
Oh, friend. So glad you checked this out. I was lucky to make the whole journey with Beatles. Oh my god, what would we be without them?

At the end of song, on album, the cold ending goes into "here comes the Sun" the contrast of songs, is masterful!
When they were in the engineers both for a playback John to Geoff Emerick
" cut it there" .
..John. wanted a dead ending
Freaking Ringo was so shit cool and those insane crazy bass lucks by Paul are just insane!
It's such a a really great song... Lennon was the man
Great Album....

Nice, I observed some similarities of their song "Because". I grew up in the 60's with the Beatles.

Dear Prudence- Beatles
One of my favorite Beatle's songs, but I can understand why people might not get what they trying to do.
Great reaction 👍
the root.. the band. that band gave jobs to weekend drummers and cover bands. the prototype for all of the later bands of the era.
I read that they played until the tape ran out, and left it that way
Nope, John asked the engineer to splice it at the end so that it ended abruptly.
As I wrote elsewhere, the full take ran 8m08s before it fell apart. If you can find that tape, you can hear the original ending.

Ahh yes, many songs, no 2 alike, that was the Beatles...
Without knowing the album itself, you called it exactly. That was the end of Side 1 of Abbey Road.
You should react to earlier songs now. Please Please me, their first #1 may be a good choice.
Off their last recorded album, 1969.
I notice the Iron Maiden t-shirt, so I suppose you now they covered the Beatle's song Helter Skelter.
Only so much room on a record, they took it to the end.
This was the last song of the first side of the LP. Heavy indeed.

Does it mean something else today?
@@lreking8929yeah heavy means too much to deal with
Try Klaatu’s Little neutrino song 👌
I remember when the rumor was that Klaatu were actually the Beatles reunited...
It's Paul singing
no it isn't
No. But interestingly enough, there IS a messy taped (5m30s, Apple, late Jan 1969?) rehearsal where Paul DOES sing sloppy lead, and a mostly serious acetate (4m44s, maybe Trident sessions) where he does a better job. FWIW, the acetate version is often disputed (an "outfake") because no physical acetate has ever surfaced, but it sure sounds like Paul to these ears. I could be wrong, though.
John purposely wrote a minimalist lyric.
What's weird is that she was only like 125 pounds.
