Each metronome have a Ringo Starr inside
😂😂😂
Ringo doesn’t need a metronome. A metronome needs him
Ringo's timing was always absolutely perfect!
Still is
Impressive how John’s voice stands out, in power or melody
I love this song. It's a masterclass in songwriting.
Damn Ringo was a computer when it came to timing
He's also very consistent with his rim shots throughout the groove of the song. Ringo's drums always sounded great, whenever I tune my drums I try to emulate a mixture of the drum sounds he achieved.
Genius
I think it was George Martin that said "rarely did Ringo make a mistake where they had to do another take"
No, he was much better than a computer, he was a brilliant human musician.

I Would always play my 12 string Hootenanny as John did on the recording. most Beatlemania bands don't, but mine did.
John's double vocal tracking is incredible. Back then you couldn't just copy and paste so to get both vocals that close it amazing
They actually used an ADT, which is automatic double tracking
Astonishing that he felt that McCartney was the better singer. John had such power and ruggedness!
@@jimestooper1480 adt wasn’t invented until 1966 during revolver!
@@mackpalumbo5732 I stand corrected!
@@mackpalumbo5732 And even then, you can definitely hear the difference when they started using that.
Johns rhythm signature on the Framus 12 string Hootenanny just blows me away. It had such emotional feel to it.
It was 1965. They were the hard, cutting edge of rock and roll before anyone else. George Martin gave them that sound with his creative ear. The BASS was the loudest instrument, played with a pick to be the foundation of the rhythm track, with drums following and Lennon aggressively strumming hard to complete the loud sound of rock that parents HATED!! My father called it " pounding SHIT !" It was revolutionary. Harrisons guitar embellishments were icing on the cake. Their double tracked vocals were now the standard on almost every song....completing their signature sound. It would NEVER have sounded like that without George Martin....who was the REAL creator of the modern rock and roll sound. They would have sounding like wimpy, folk- rock band instead, without their full talent magnified properly. You can HEAR the difference in quality of their sound by comparing the awful production of Phil Spector to ANYTHING that Martin did !
George always said he felt that Rubber Soul and Revolver were almost a "part 1" and "part 2" to each other. To me, Help! always was a great bridge to Rubber Soul's sound, and felt closer to it.
A bridge but different. They're so magnificent that their similarities to their next albums are equal to it's differences
George who? I assume you're talking about Harrison
George loved those records
Love these George tracks.
When he was just a couple weeks into learning how to play, one of his childhood friends was astounded at George's ability, when memorizing American records, to just spontaneously invent riffs that fit into the style and groove of the different tunes.
A useful gift with the Beatles
That baseline sounds like The Coral borrowed it for 'Dreaming of You'
Each part is so vibrant with life. That’s what the Beatles are about: LIFE. That’s why they are so exceptional.
Yes, Very well put.
Most importantly they didn’t overthink themselves.. They were doing a job that they loved.
@@lloydmoss217 Well, yes, collectively, based on what they released. But perhaps this is because they had a very conservative, adult, highly musically educated producer who they greatly respected in George Martin who guided them throughout every step.
We have no way of knowing what each of them thought privately and how highly complicated some of their ideas that never got recorded might have been.
I can imagine (no pun intended) John and Paul, at least, "overthinking" lots of things.
What they did was not their job. They didn't apply to a "Band Wanted" advert. Playing music was their innermost passion from the depth of their souls.and what they HAD to do I'm sure it was never a "job" to them.
@@Glicksman1 Agreed. But more importantly they actually listened to George Martin and what he had to offer!
@@lloydmoss217 Yes, they had wisdom, judgement and professional discipline that kids their age normally do not yet posses, and some people never posses. It is a curious but true contradiction that extreme discipline is necessary in order to create woks of extremely fine and free artistic expression. Their discipline and devotion to their art and craft paid off in their being able to create the most glorious pop music of all time.
Ooo that drum sound!!!!!!! Pleasure to the ears.
YES ! ... Great Job !
Those vocals sound amazing.
John is my favourite singer of all time.
Whoever had the idea for Ringo to lay off the ride cymbals was a percussion genius. This was a radical, very unusual thing to do, or not to do in a song like this, to just play rim shots and bass drum throughout with crash cymbals in strategic places. I've heard this song hundreds of times. It always sounded special and different to me, but I couldn't put my finger on what it was. Well, as with many brilliant musical pieces, it wasn't what they were DOING, it was what they WEREN'T doing. Pure genius!
That genius would be Ringo. He has said many times that he never tried to overshadow the vocals
@@jimhart4488 Well, we don't really know for sure whose idea it was, but I suspect it was Ringo just being quietly brilliant. That's what everyone in a band is supposed to do, play only that which enhances the song. He always does just that.
Ooo they are so good. The rhythm guitar makes me cry, it,s so alive.
Vocals are just wow
Wow, wow, WOW! That speechless. Thanks for this gem.
Love that song thanks for this video. The drums wow.
The best song in rock history
And this isn’t R&B either. This is original Beatles music. They had somehow created their own sound and style. Nobody else sounded like this. Some critics tried to label it Mersey beat but Lennon said it was rock n roll. There is no Mersey sound. Then came Daytripper and I Feel Fine. Original hits!
Note how on the verses the backup vox switches from preceding the lead vocal (“but”) to following it (“now and then”) then back to preceding (“I know that I”)…ending in unison for the last line of the verse. So creative.
Beatles could definitely sing. Vocals are outstanding.
Side Note: Lennon sings the HIGH notes each time on the part "Please Please". He goes above Paul. This was a very COMMON thing that people don't realize. They think every time there are high notes sung in a harmony that Paul is always singing the highest note. Absolutely untrue. Many, many examples including "Please Please Me", "From Me To You", I Saw Her Standing There",
"I Want To Hold Your Hand", "You're Gonna Lose That Girl" etc. Where John sings the highest notes then works his way downward or hangs up there for a short while.
Come Together
They didn't confine themselves
I like George’s playing of the descending notes.
Someone knows the chords of these descending notes?
Your job is amazing!!!
Thanks!!!
Glad you like it!
12 string heaven, nothing compares 😊
Nice to hear your again!! 🎉
I'm amazed at the energy and musical brightness of Paul's bass playing here, as well as throughout the entire Beatles catalogue. Those bouncing in-between notes, his expertly executed "one to the five, five to the one"", up and down (mostly extinct amongst bass players today and for a while, more's the pity) along with just a touch of a walking line or pedaling a single note where appropriate. Such fine technique, brilliance and inspiration.
Not the flashiest or most thunderous, Paul is, however, the finest bass player in rock.
Also, we should not forget John's driving rhythm guitar, played with particular verve on a 12-string acoustic guitar on this song. It's an entire rhythm section in itself, which is likely why they told Ringo, or he decided for himself, not to play any ride cymbals or high-hat on the song.
It strikes me that the reason why The Beatles sound so especially great on their recordings, their basic excellence beyond virtually all other bands, at least one important reason, is that each of them had/has a perfect, unerring ear for and sense of musical TIME They kept time perfectly with each other and within each song while still swinging hard in an exiting manner. This is not at all a common ability, but those musicians who possess this particular aspect of musical talent are always the best ones on any instrument, and bands wherein all of the musicians posses this talent are rarer and better still.
Greatly appreciated!
The vocals carry the entire song. Thanks for posting!
You don't say 😂
14:12 and 15:52 I always loved John’s heartfelt pleading. To hear in isolation is a blessing of modern AI.
Love it!

Welcome back
Thanks!
great stuff
Thanks so much for uploading this! It's kind of funny when people debate whether John was a good rhythm guitar player, or just average. And George was always adding tasteful colors and textures. I've always to hear something like this- thanks, again!!!
Alone the vocals would be enough to make any of todays acapella groups more than famous. 😊
I especially like how Paul’s voice sometimes ‘wraps’ around John’s voice,
Perfect !
can you do isolated guitar on i want you (she's so heavy)? it's one of my favorite songs and can't seem to find it anywhere and was wondering if you could do it.
yeah its one of my favorites and i have trouble finding them isolated

@@rbstems thank you bro i really appreciate this
The bass guitar sounds like come together
demixx software is mind blowing. we have it in our studio. scary what you can do...
I heard the instrumental version in the Abbey Road Studios in 1983 from the original tapes they played
it was like they were there..
They are just the best
Nice work!
Thanks!
Drums + tambourine
Yeah I'll correct that :)
"Won't you please,please help him?"
Wow
Sooo good all of it!! But interesting how Ringo plays an almost inaudible kick drum in the verses.
Vocals are perfectly isolated. Best version❤
YEEAAAAA
Paul McCartney John Lennon George Harrison Ringo Starr (Richard Starkey). The best to do it, among am army of greats
the first 2 measures of paul's bass reminds me of come together
He's playing the exact same bass notes on the chorus of come together as he does on the intro to help! B to A to G. He plays those same notes an octave lower during the part "Come Together, Right now, Over me!" You're not wrong.
@@overjoyous fancy
OBRA MAESTRA QUE DEBE SER REFERENCIA PARA LAS BANDAS QUE SE INICIAN....LOS MAS GRANDES HAN SIDO SIN IGUALABLES.....T H E B E A T L E S......
Ahí se escucha claramente la precisión de George en los tiempos y el mágico guitarrista que era, además su pose tan natural y sexy cuando interpretaba a la guitarra ¡ qué bien conectaba , con el grupo, con el público ! Eran únicos, un prodigio de la Música. The Beatles forever !❤😂❤
@@maricarmeniturria4667 HOLA MARI....Sin duda que con ese nombre eres española......pais donde THE BEATLES son justamente venerados.....Yo estoy en Colombia, y me mola mi apellido vasco......SALUDOS.......sois de un gran Reino.....
I had never noticed how kick drum barely hears in the verse, that`s interesting thing. You know, it`s like you don`t have always to play clear and compressing kick sound all the time in pop music
I watched a couple of "guitar lesson" videos on this song and I think they get the descending guitar lick wrong. I think what people say it is (the same two notes going down one fret at a time) is easier but doesn't sound as good as what's actually on the record. I think the lowest note is going down one fret at a time, and the third and fourth notes are always G and B, but the second note is a G the first two times and an E the next two times. If I'm right, it's an impressively hard, counterintuitive thing to play on the guitar, but it sounds good as hell. Anyone know what I'm talking about? I'd love to get another opinion.
Jesus, how in 6 decades of worshipping the Beatles can there still be photos out there I've never seen before?
They must be the most photographed band in the world, every day I find new Beatles pics.
11:25 lets not tell paul that we will wear hat
🏆🏆🏆🏆
Because of the loss of sound quality in bouncing tracks to go beyond four it’s not obvious John is playing a 12 string on this song. In fact I suspect it was tuned down a half step and capoed on the first fret due to a take I heard on “Hide Your Love Away”. I believe it was a Framus, but whatever it was the tension was reduced and possibly easier to play.

Hi, do you re-mix then post this? I can actually hear the Hofner very well.
Yes I do!
This particular recording has the bass pretty well recorded. Other clips don’t sound as good which isn’t @rbstems fault, but rather the quality of the recording
What kind of remixing do you do to the stems after you get them from the AI and before you post them?
Basic remixing, but the following : compression when needed, noise reduction, EQ filtering to remove any excess noise in the background is usually my go to. Stereo panning too when mixing different parts together obviously. It's not a simple drag and drop process as some might think!
Of you would reconstruct it the way it is It would sound better and a lot clearer than the remastered one .
Does anyone else hear some sus2s on the A chord in the verse?
There's definitely some here and there in the verses, you're right.
Most definitely
Please do The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel!
13:47
3rd 'Help' is very obviously "Health!".
4th 'Help' is very obviously "Hell!".
Wow
that bass...must be paul's replacement ha 😃
george's guitar part = EPIC
This may be the only song with John singing lead that George, not Paul, sings the primary backing vocal. Paul sings, of course, but George's voice dominates.
15:43 what is that stray "round"??
Bleed from the guitar I forgot to clean up, sorry!
@@rbstems nothing to be sorry about! I was just wondering, sometimes there are ghost vocals that are really exciting to discover. So what is this sound that ended up there exactly? Is it really the guitar and it just happened to sound like someone singing "round" to me?
Pretty sure that's the guitar overdub yeah.
how did you find the individual tracks, was it isolated through AI or did you somehow find the pre-bounced 4 tracks? I had read that George Martin preferred to "reduce" from one deck to another instead of three tracks to one, I hear bleed over but they cut everything live then and overdubbed layered vocals, how did you do it?
Isolated through AI with the help of the 5.1 mix from the movie. The 5.1 features some of the bounced tracks, but not all of them I believe.
@@rbstems amazing work, 👍can anyone get the software to do that? I have some old recordings of mine I would love to isolate and remix, I heard "woman" isolated tracks but it was awful except the drums, lead vocals and all the guitars together, back ground vocals which I was listening for were awful, Help was remixed for the movie and on re-release they dubbed the stereo version back in the 80's, the stereo versions fro the mid 60's were not a true 3D mix but panning instruments and vocals to different sides, when they did rubber soul they overdubbed all the vocals on most of the songs instead of doing a vocal track at the same time as the rhythm track and adding a stack on a over dub, i loved that because if you put it on two tracks of a studio, center the track with the vocals and lower the volume on the other track you get a true isolated vocal with maybe a tambourine or something else, listening to nowhere man and Michelle will blow you away!
Where did you get these STEMs from????
Made them with AI.
00:00
Where did u get 5.1 mix from and can u give me like a link?
shorturl.at/wV013
Why are they so fast?
@@rbstems Thank you for the files, appreciated!😊
I thought the rhythm guitar a play of banjo.
13:42
No tape hiss, no mixing desk S/N, no 50 hz ground hum from the mains. Even the original master tape didn't have this clarity in 1964.
1965
Was the bass recorded twice....?
The first bass sounded awful.
Paul and John were 23 years old in '65
John y Ringo tenian la misma edad McCartney 2 años menos que ellos McCartney 1 año menos que George todos se referian a George como el hermanito
Recorded in April and (vocals) in May 1965. Paul was still 22 and John was 24.
O instrumento isolado NÃO acredito que SEJA original!
Está muito mal tocado!!!!!
Bass...overtones ..out of tune..
