This was from "With the Beatles" released Nov. 1963. John sang lead, Paul and George did the harmonies and back up.
This song is from their second album....for more Beatles songs like this... "This Boy", "Ask Me Why", "Misery", or "There's A Place" (which is more upbeat)... for other bands doing similar stuff, the Rolling Stones started off as a blues cover band, and one of their best early covers songs is of Bobby Womack's "It's All Over Now" ... the best place to watch the Stones do this is on the T.A.M.I. Show from 1964, which also has great performances by James Brown, Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye and the Supremes.... if you ever want to have fun, watch the T.A.M.I. Show from 1964... and great early Stones songs they wrote themselves that reflect the influence of their early blues covers include "Heart of Stone" and "Play With Fire".
Thank you so nuch for this!
This song is a co lead with John Lennon and George Harrison. The only time in the Beatles catalog.that there was a co lead that didn't include Paul McCartney.
Dang!! I was gonna say that!😁
Obviously, The Beatles' version could not exist without The Miracles' original, but to my ears The Beatles and George Martin brought even additional seriousness to the instruments and vocals.
All good wishes,
Barrie
The Beatles loved their musical role models and were also pretty good, if not exceptional, with their interpretations ("Twist and shout", "Long tall Sally"!) There are 2 more Motown classics on "With the Beatles": "Please Mr.Postman" and "Money (that's what I want"). John Lennon also sings leadvocals in both of them, as in "You've really got a hold on me" (here with George Harrison).
The Beatles were so good that you could do "Eenie meenie minee moe" and get a GREAT song.
They grew up in Liverpool and used to get the Merchant Seamen to bring back black American girl bands records from America for them. At the time these bands couldn't get any airtime in America but the beatles were playing covers of them in the clubs of Liverpool and later when they toured America. It wasn't until they did this that these black artists started getting airtime on US mainstream radio
BLUERIO, Lately that notion that the got these records from Merchant Seamen, has been disproved, we all heard that for many years, but it's not true. Also, you said that "black American girl bands were NOT getting any airtime in America. THAT Is TOTALLY WRONG. YES THEY DID. The black girl groups were on the radio ALL the TIME, I was a teenager then and listened to the radio whenever I wasn't in school! THEY WERE VERY VERY POPULAR then in the U.S.
@@patticrichton1135 I respect your opinion as you clearly love the beatles. However I must respectfully disagree regarding your comments on Merchant Seamen. I am from Liverpool and many of my family were merchant Seamen at the time. They often recalled how they used to trawl the record shops of New York and other Eastern seaports with lists given to them by Liverpool teens of records to buy (rock n roll and 'girl bands' the most requested). I believe Historians would call this testimony Primary Evidence, the gold star of Historic truth. I'm not sure what primary sources you have?
We all love Motown too!
Good review. It's from their 2nd album with John on lead vocals with George joining him. Check out their cover of "Please Mr. Postman".
I recorded & uploaded that yesterday & it should be unblocked by UA-cam by either Saturday or Sunday, thanks for Suggesting!
In 1963 the Beatles had their first #1 hit in England called Please Please Me. So it was decided that they should release an album. They didn't have enough originals at the time to fill it so they recorded some of the cover songs from their stage act such as Anna, Twist and Shout, Chains, and this one. They recorded the whole album in one session! Also note that their American albums in the early days were different from the British versions. So a song from their first British album may have appeared on their second American album. Capital records condensed their albums in the early days in order to sell more records. In other words, the American versions had fewer songs with some being held over for the next album.
Off their second album, " With The Beatles."
2nd British album. Perhaps you already know this but in the US, Capital Records would mess with the album releases with less songs, [11 or 12 rather than 14]including the single 45 rpm hits to help push the album sales. Even though kids had the singles, they would still buy the albums - it was standard practice in the USA in those days. Capital altered album titles until the Sgt. Pepper album in 1967. With the Beatles was "Meet the Beatles" and You've Really Got a Hold on me in the USA was on an album released after Meet the Beatles with a collection of 1963 and 1964 tunes the album was called, lol, "The Beatles Second album." The album included :She Loves You" from 1963 because it was brand new to the listeners in the USA. One of those tunes on this album was You've Really Got a Hold on Me. They should have called that album "Strike While the Iron is Hot" because that's what Capital was actually doing. They didn't think the Beatles would last only a year or two. Capital was owned by the same EMI that Parlophone was...crazy, complicated stuff too lengthy to discuss here.
You should try listening to the version of Let It Be by The Beatles were Paul changes the lyrics and sings about Malcolm X. The Beatles refused to play in front of segregated audiences when they first toured America. The first artists ever to do so and perform to a completely unsegregated audience
Loved the "reaction piece," all of it: the brilliant intro, the Motown knowledge, the striking intelligence of the reviewer, the One World sensibility. Subscribed!
From second LP, "With The Beatles".
This is the first time I've heard a reaction to this song. Good take. Obviously, the Beatles had a great respect for MoTown. And the royalties to the song creators was a boost to those artists! A win-win all 'round. Good job. Subscribed.
Dude, I'm a white boy from Ohio, and we grew up listening to an AM station outta Detroit,(the motor city) which was a Motown station and man, brings back memories. Peace
John and George on the duet, then George joins Paul in the backing vocals. It's from "With the Beatles", end of 1963.
All the best,
Barrie
It’s amazing how the Beatles evolved over the years. Their last rooftop concert in London had the late Billy Preston on keyboards.
John sings lead. Paul harmony, and then Paul and George on backup. It's bluesier than the original.
For another cover you gotta check out the beatles version of long tall sally
I seem to remember that George Harrison did a solo tribute song called Pure Smokey.
Thank you! I might have to check that out!
My dad, Casey and I came across your channel. Very good reactions. We were drawn to your Beatles reactions, my dad was first introduced to them in 1963. I have loved them since birth. Please react to The Beatles song - Do You Want to Know a Secret. Keep up the great job.
Being from Lansing originally, Motown was a big deal in Michigan especially, even for this little white kid at the time...my blind cousin went to the Michigan School for the Blind with Stevie Wonder and I didn't even know it for a long time. In childhood I was influenced by Motown, the Beatles, about anything on the radio/TV, and even old 78 rpm records. Louis Armstrong was a big influence on the fact I became a trumpet player, [even Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass]. Which evolved for me into all types of music. Well, with the influences, I became a musician and public school music teacher. So I would never apologize for liking Motown, or being from Lansing or Detroit.
Don't apologize for your taste in music. I grew up in the 60s and 70s and anything since then has always been second class for me. We can sure agree on your love of Motown though. Wow.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that ❤ and yes Motown lights my soul up
The Beatles were hugely, profoundly, and deeply influenced by African-American musical artists, intellectuals, authors, even sports figures. Motown's genius-poet of love and loss, Smokey Robinson, remained a constant touchstone for the Beatles even after their break-up--check out George Harrison's "Pure Smokey," his late 1970's jazzy, Quiet-Storm shout-out to Smokey Robinson's landmark "A Quiet Storm" stylings. The Beatles gender-fluidity, anti-imperialism, anti-racism stances, working-class Left-wing perspectives, and their prescient "coding" directly reflects and echoes the influences of the likes of Little Richard, "Little" Stevie Wonder, Stax Volt, James Brown, the Isley Brothers, Baldwin, Nina Simone, et al.
In an entirely poignant way, the Beatles wonderful weirdness has influenced their influencers. For example, the Beatles' concept-album approach provided a template for the rock era's masterpieces by Marvin Gaye -- the jaw-droppingly prescient What's Goin' On--Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key of Life and Inner Visions; the entirety of Prince's eclectic, electric takes on everything (it's no accident that of all the great guitarists who have tackled George Harrison's While My Guitar Gently Weeps, including Eric Clapton and George Harrison themselves, Prince's soloing speaks directly to and summons the song's anguish and Holy Fire as no other ). Closer to our era, echoes of the Beatles' experimental, conceptual, and sonic approaches resonate in the Wu-Tang Clan's sonic, mind-expanding forays, Harrison's One World Indian classicisms course through Missy Eliott's outliers, and John Lennon's personal-as-universal forays, in particular, are taken up and made their own in the genius likes of Mary Blige and Beyoncé's masterworks.
One can trace even Beatles' breakthrough Indian music/culture connection to the One World cultural movements of African Diaspora musician/intellectuals. Will the Circle Be Unbroken, indeed.
Taking a very very long bow here!
"The Beatles" covered several Motown -- including "Please Mister Postman".
Yea I recorded a reaction to that one yesterday, and uploaded it, youtube blocked it right away like they do all my Beatles stuff, but it should only be for 3-4 days so look for it Saturday or Sunday, but yea I was really impressed with the cover.
@@J.Fro90 For years I didn't think that much of their cover version. But in recent years I saw video of both the original and their version and theirs is just as good as the original.
They also covered "CHAINS" by The Cookies. PLEASE REACT to that one!
John and George do the Duo Harmonies
Thanks for this, love this Beatles cover...I just hit subscribe!
Thank you so much, and I really appreciate you
You should check out Smokey's cover of Yesterday
I definitely will, I never heard his version
Love the Isley Brothers...but Beatles blow them away...and Smokey Robinson
John Lennon, George Harrison.
try Carpenters they have soul and emotion but from left field as far as your history of music goes but you are open to alternative views trythem
Ah I'm a mega Carpenters fan, but I'm probably gonna do reactions to their live performances cause I haven't seen too many videos of them performing
@@J.Fro90 Fantastic live would be great, just watched a video of comparisons karen's voice studio versus live and she is even more accurate live, astonishing talent. By the way love the Beatles, and Tamala motown seventies soul stylistics especially but so many fabulous artists back then
GERMAN!!!! They are GERMAN!!!!
It's already the second song when something's wrong with the sound What's up? Why the sound is so quiet and noisy?
