I’m not being that guy but I’m a Beatles fanatic and play the bass myself … my thoughts are that most of the runs and tricky bits are on the elongated notes or the fills in between the bars / break of the melody. What ya think? 😀 curious … he’s an absolute genius my fav to play is either something or she’s so heavy I think they’re crazy !
Oh yeah, I learned Do you want to know a secret on the bass from a youtube tutorial, it took me a long time to sing to it and play Pauls notes with proper sustain. There are a lot of nuances and clever sharps and flats in his progressions. Not just the usual 8 bar repeating bass lines. Paul McCartney definitely demonstrates next level musicianship. Creative writing and talented singing
He reinvented not only the bass,but the role of the bassist as well.Nobody before him,wanted to play that instrument in a band.After him,many wanted to.
I think originally Paul played bass by default but you can't deny that he helped develop bass as a melodic counter point to guitar or keyboards and not just for rhythm. He opened up the possibilities of bass guitar as a lead instrument in the way John Entwistle RIP and Chris Squire RIP have done....
@@Thundergod- Paul McCartney himself credited Brian Wilson: "I played [Pet Sounds] to John [Lennon] so much that it would be difficult for him to escape the influence … it was the record of the time. The thing that really made me sit up and take notice was the bass lines … and also, putting melodies in the bass line. That I think was probably the big influence that set me thinking when we recorded Pepper, it set me off on a period I had then for a couple of years of nearly always writing quite melodic bass lines." and ". When I first heard [Pet Sounds], I thought, Wow, this is the greatest record of all time! Brian took the bass into very unusual places. The band would play in C, and Brian would stay in G. That kind of thing. It gave me great ideas. That musical invention of Brian Wilson was eye-opening, I mean, ear-opening."
Revolver is my favourite album but, man, when you listen to this song (a "deep album cut") you realize just how much further they had taken things beyond their peers at the time. This song has so many wonderful things going on. It's a treat to see Paul play it live.
My fav is wings over America and possibly even more so the one hand clapping sessions. My gosh his voice was just phenomenal, nine hundred and eighty five + baby face are so perfect from the OHC record.
Not by all, I've always loved the Beatles from an early age (I'm 62 now) and mainly liked their earlier music but once I started listening more to "Sergeant Pepper", "Fixing A Hole" is memorable/addictive - it is very intelligent/imaginative and needs to be listened to properly in order to understand that it has more than one meaning, being the one you initially hear.👍👂🧠🙂🌹
Though every Beatles song is unique, this one is absolutely 100% unique as a whole. It has an indescribable vibe to it that I can't explain and the first words that come to my mind when I think of it are acid rock. I don't know if acid rock is actually a thing, and if so, idk if it sounds anything like this but to my ears, this is rock n roll filled with acid. I don't care if the lyrics are about weed or life or whatever, I'm talking about the feeling it gives me

The first 13 notes off the album cut just blow me away. Then Ringo comes in with his 6 delicate taps on the symbol. Awesome. Another one of Paul's best.

Richard Lush, an engineer in the studio at the time, said that John Lennon played bass on this song while Paul McCartney played harpsichord. This account can be found in the book The Beatles Gear.
It's certainly Paul's style so I'm sure he wrote the bass part, but I believe it's actually George who played bass. George had a good feel for bass. John, not so much.
Not sure I buy the engineer's supposed accounting of the recording facts. Agree with other commentator...this is most definitely a McCartney bass line ....the cartoon/videos of the track show Lennon playing keyboard. Need to go back to George Martin for validation and that is going to be kind of tough....someone ought to ask McCartney a few meaningful questions on the music creativity facts before it's too late.
Geoff Emerick said Paul came into the studio in the evenings, by himself, with only Emerick present, during the Pepper sessions, and recorded the bass lines well into the night for each of his songs, over and over until he got them perfect. So I am sure Paul played the bass on Fixing. Not sure he did this on the other Beatles' songs, but you can check it out in the book Here, There and Everywhere by Geoff Emerick.
@@johnmaer this is a composite recording. The track on the Pepper album is the recording done at Regent Studios with John on Bass.. McCartney on harpsichord... then they worked on it further with McCartney adding a more prominent bass overdub and George Martin adding the more prominent harpsichord and possibly Ringo adding cymbals on top as well. you can hear the ghost of the Regent recording under the Abbey Road one!
quando o cara nasce pra ser artista ele passa uma vibe diferente em cima do palco. vai além de profissionalismo! é sobre gostar, saber e desenvolver(da melhor forma possível) aquilo que fazemos.
I'd love to get to see him before it's too late for him or me. I'll be 70 soon. I've seen Ringo's All Star Band and also Brian Wilson about 12 years ago. They were both really good but what impressed me most was Brian Wilson's voice was better than ever. I'm honored to have seen this music legend.
On a whim I played the studio version the other day. So surreal to see Paul perform this song from "Sergeant Pepper's" because they had stopped touring before then.
@@chrisreidy439 Get what you mean but I don't see Lovely Rita as a pure psychedelic song...more like Paul's "descriptive character" songs, like "She Came in Through the Bathroom Window" or "Rocky Racoon"...
At the top of his game here ...I just wish he would quit now before the keyboard warriors tear him apart for his (justifiably) weakening voice...he's 76 now and trying to sing like when he was 26 ..Paul I love you man, but accept that the voice is fading , don't let mean spirited people spoil the legend that we love.. Respect sir, you are an absolute phenomenon
Paul used acid sometimes.His drug of choice of drug is definitely weed!! He indulged in acid, just not like John and George who loved acid!! I read I believe that John did thousands of acid trips!! I've heard they all were tripping on acid when they did Sgt Pepper album! Ringo doesn't seem to disclose a lot! Here's the one that totally funny!! They said at times that Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was not about a very tripping acid!! Excuse us!!!!! And all four Beatles insist that they got the idea from a picture John's eldest son brought home a drawing he had made at school and said " look it's Lucy in the sky with Diamonds!! So it just was a coincidence that all the words that were capitalized just happened to spell out LSD!!! They made some kind of vow to always say Julian made that picture!! If you would ask
That was the year he turned 50. He still was in fine voice back then.
Oh yeah he was. He still sounded like he did in his Beatles days. And he was just so darn cute and cool !
Those days are long gone...
@@w.k.4995 yes and it will be liddat for every single one of us
he couldn't sing it now
it will be like that for those of us lucky enough to live that far!
Paul's bass part while singing is very difficult.He is very good bassist and singer and songwriter.Love you Paul.
Brian Wilson did the same.

The bass part is actually easy in this song.

@@Zones1 Goofy ass 💀
@@Zones1 …
Close your eyes and you'd think this is so reminiscent of the Paul voice of 1967. Great stuff, Macca.
Not quite he’s struggling with the higher notes a touch although he hits them he’s having to work. In 1960s it was effortless
@@lightningleaf23 He should lean more on the vowels while singing. He's pronouncing the consonants too much
Revolver is my favourite album but, man, when you listen to this song (a "deep album cut") you realize just how much further they had taken things beyond their peers at the time.
This song has so many wonderful things going on. It's a treat to see Paul play it live.
This is from Sgt. Pepper. Not Revolver ❤
Ah man. This is my favorite era for Paul's voice. Getting mature, and still with the range. Such a great performance here.
My fav is wings over America and possibly even more so the one hand clapping sessions. My gosh his voice was just phenomenal, nine hundred and eighty five + baby face are so perfect from the OHC record.
One of my favourite tracks from Pepper, great to see him still doing it 25 years on.
An underrated gem of a song

You're right, especially since John hated it when Paul was writting his "granny sh!t" while he wanted to make "audio ahrt"... 🙄@@gilliankingston8259

It's definitely the most _pepper-ish_ song on Sgt. Pepper.
Yes.
Seeing Linda on stage makes me cry. She was his love. They were supposed to grow old together
Had this song stuck in my head this morning. So far it's been a great day!
This is the best answer to those who talk about Faul and that Paul is dead, he was alive in 1992 and with the same voice as in mid 60s
Actually, not a very good answer at all. Fixing A Hole was sung with the 'Faul'. Not that it has any merit, but just saying :P

This is such a good live performance of one of my all time favorites! So sick that this footage is up here!
My favorite Beatle song. The melody and that double tracked lead guitar by George is so amazing.
and now the record is 50. album of the century !
Paul at his best, a beautiful melody for the simple and marvelous things of life.

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in,
나는 비가 새는 구멍을 고치고 있어요
And stops my mind from wandering
그리고 어디로 갈지
Where will it go.
방황하는 일도 이젠 그만두려 해요
I'm filling the cracks that ran through the door,
문으로 나 있는 틈을 틀어 막고 있어요
